RDP SATURDAY: SPIN

Image from Advanced ENT & Allergy


As I sat at my desk, staring at the computer screen, my mind began to spin. Thoughts swirled around in my head like a tornado, making it impossible to focus on the task at hand.

I couldn't help but think about the recent events in my life. The job I had lost, the relationship that had ended, the friendships that had drifted away. It was all spinning out of control, leaving me feeling lost and alone.

But then, amid the chaos, I had a realization. I could spin this all around. Instead of dwelling on the negative, I could use these experiences to propel myself forward.

I began to spin a new narrative, one of growth and possibility. I started looking for new job opportunities, reaching out to old friends, and focusing on self-improvement.

The more I spun this new narrative, the more my mindset shifted. I began to feel empowered and in control of my life again. I realized that I had the power to spin any situation into a positive one.

Now, as I sit at my desk once again, I feel a sense of peace. My mind is no longer spinning out of control, but rather spinning with possibility. And I know that no matter what challenges come my way, I have the power to spin them into something great.

"In the spotl͏ight's embrace, a dancer takes fl͏ight w͏ith the cl͏ick of her heels, weav͏ing a graceful dream on the stage." In response to dVerse Poetry Form: Flamenca or Seguidilla Gitana For today’s poetry form, we are writing to the Flamenca or Seguidilla Gitana which carries a fast staccato rhythm. It is a variation of the Seguidilla, which was discussed here, including the definition of assonance. The elements of the Flamenca are: *stanzaic, can be written in any number of quintains. *syllabic, 6-6-5-6-6 syllables per line to imitate the rapid click of the heels of a dancer. *Line 2 and Line 5 assonate. (same vowel sounds) Teatros del Canal, Madrid, Spain Heels clicking, swift delight, On the stage, she takes flight. In spotlight's soft gleam, Her dance, a graceful dream, Grace in each step's invite. V͏is͏it͏ing Teatros del Canal ͏in Madr͏id, Spa͏in, for a flamenco performance was an exper͏ience I'll treasure forever. As I entered the elegant theater, th

Window Gazing

"A poem reflecting on what we see from our windows and what we wish we could see." In response to Poetics: Window Gazing Through my window, I see the world, A picture of life unfurled, The hustle and bustle of the street, A never-ending, restless beat. I see the sun shining, the clouds drifting, The leaves swaying, the flowers blooming, But beyond this, I wish to see, A world where love and kindness are key. I wish to see a world where people care, Where no one is left out to despair, Where hope and joy are found in every heart, And every soul plays a positive part. I wish to see a world where nature thrives, Where the oceans are clean and the forests alive, Where the air is pure, and the sky is blue, And the beauty of the earth shines through. Perhaps it's not the view that needs to change, But rather the lens through which I arrange, My thoughts and feelings, hopes and dreams, To find the beauty in life's extremes. So through my window, I'll keep looking out, An
