Spanners
The gaping hole
that looks so wide
becomes part of
a short ride
when the
connection is made
between two sides.
Bridge the gap.
The Wordsmith Studio writing sprints are back Fridays during June and July. Use the #wssprint hashtag on Twitter to join in between 11 a.m. and Midnight EST. Sprints start on the hour and go for 45 minutes. Write, edit, prepare queries or do whatever you choose to further your writing/artistic goals. Drop in to say hello and see who else is sprinting. Prompts will be offered and so will encouragement.

Sit With the Shadows
You break away
but aren't broken
by your fall.
Kick up dust
when you land
then settle in.
Find contentment
in a place where
you can glisten
in the sun or
sit with the shadows.
This poem got its start during a writing sprint. As part of Wordsmith Studio's 4th anniversary celebration in April, Elissa Field is hosting writing sprints on Twitter each Friday from 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Eastern time. You can join in using #wssprint or #wschat. We did a few warm-up sprints last Friday. You can check the feed at the above hashtags.
