It is Colleen’s turn this week to choose the prompt word for her and Ronovan’s Writer’s Quote on Wednesday Challenge, and she has come up with ‘rebirth.’ I found this wonderful quote by Anne Frank which I can very much relate to:
I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn
-Anne Frank
When I sit here writing
I can be who I want to be
I can go on long adventures
Or I could solve a mystery
The timid little person
Who is so very shy
Could become a mighty warrior
Or perhaps a Super Spy!
I could make myself a hero
Who always saves the day
Or perhaps an evil villain
Who gets more twisted every day.
What about a princess
Who is a stunning beauty?
Or a blowsy, brassy barmaid
Whose language is quite fruity!
A skittish, social butterfly
An astronaut in space
The chairman of a company
A woman of style and grace!
Yes, when I sit here writing
I can be who I want to be
Not this mousey little person
But a reborn, flawless Me!
Awesome. The joy of the imagination!

I love this. I don’t think you have the slightest idea how many people admire you and see you so differently. I see you as bright, courageous, kind, and thoughtful. You are so creative.

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
