✨Kinship✨ Mullein follows me everywhere, always finding an excuse to grow outside my bedroom window. All the times I’ve moved in my life, I am honored that she wont let me do it alone. . . . . . . .

✨Stillness / Eyes Closed✨ . . . . . . . Day 8 of October Chrysalis, creative prompts by @bloodmilk and @cchelseawwolfe

✨Nostalgia / Memory✨ My partner is a musician, as was my grandfather. Though the two never had a chance to meet, there is a lot of overlap between their personalities, and I enjoy pondering how they may have gotten along. I think of this especially now, during the waning season before the big holidays. . . . . . . . Day 7 of creative prompts by @bloodmilk and @cchelseawwolfe

✨Dreamcore✨ The wind beckons me again, and I must head its call. I must roar, I must run, or I cannot be at all. Autumn is not the time for stillness; even my dreams are full of flight. . . . . . . . Day 5 of creative prompts by @bloodmilk and @cchelseawwolfe

✨Beginnings / Rise / Emerge✨ Isn’t this always how it goes? Putting one foot before the other? Things end before I realize they’ve begun, and so I’m left behind. Truth is, I hate beginnings, but without them I have no place to start. One cannot wait on the brink of becoming forever, so I’ll just keep walking, placing one foot before the other. Somehow the Moon finds the will to rise, and like Her, I too want to emerge from my dark forest. . . . . . . Day 1 of October creative prompts by @bloodmilk and @cchelseawwolfe
