something moves,
striped by trunks.

PROMPT: Physical Activities or Exercises

Daily writing prompt
What are your favorite physical activities or exercises?

I never met a one I didn’t like.

PROMPT: Screen Time

Something Moves [Haiku]

something moves
through autumn grass
at water’s edge.

PROMPT: Physical Exercise

What is your favorite form of physical exercise?

I’m a big fan of them all. I like to move it, move it.

Each in its time.

Though the less special equipment I need access to, the better. I’m a firm believer that one needs only the body and mind to keep a fit body. It’s all a matter of how, how often, how intensely, and how safely one moves one’s body. Gadgety fitness can become too fetishist, and not build integration of the body as much as is ideal.

PROMPT: Hobby or pastime

What is your favorite hobby or pastime?

Swimming, at the moment.

Great Mormon [Haiku]

flaps its wings spastically,
yet hovers in place.

PROMPT: Relax

Daily writing prompt
How do you relax?
