Nearing the End of the Challenge_SOLSC 30

Today marks the near end of Two Writing Teacher's March Slice of Life Story Challenge. The journey has been filled with many stops along the way: greeting new friends, chatting with already acquainted slicers, and alone time to write and share. I'm feeling grateful for this opportunity and the quiet time tonight. Below is a found poem created from eleven of my March Musing 2020 series titles. I added in some of my digital art and nature photography.

The weather is chilled but I

walk lonely streets finding peace,
Watching nature at bloom.
I reflect on a gray day.
My March Musings pass on by.
Mesmerized by roads, I pen
A thought to live by mantra.

• Traveling home, tensions mount.
• Social distancing is real.
• Dear spring buds, what is normal?

Each year since March 2015, I have engaged in Two Writing Teacher's Annual Slice of Life Story Challenge. Slicing allows me to ponder life, literacy, and learning, capturing small moments poetically through writing, photography, and digital art. Welcome to Day 30 of 31 days of writing with Two Writing Teachers.

Did you recognize some of the lines from my found poem? They are from all of my March blogs for Two Writing Teachers Slice of Life Story Challenge. I saw on one of the slicers' blogs that she took the titles from her March posts and created a poem (sorry but I did not write down the name of my slicer friend who shared her poem of found titles). I found the blending of blog titles to be challenging but interesting and fun so I drafted one and then revised and revised until I completed what I set out to do.

Happy Slicing to all my Slice of Life friends.
