This week’s image is in honor of International Women’s Day, celebrated on
March 8th. This image shows a diverse group of five women holding a placard
on which the word “ WOMEN” is written in bold letters. In the background,
you can see other people holding different placards too.
Anyone can participate. Here are the “Rules“
- You can write a post on your blog and create a pingback to link to the
original post. - Write an original story, poem, or a caption.
- There is no limit to words or format but keep it family-friendly.
- If you post a response before next Sunday, I will be able to add it to my roundup post.
- I will do a round-up next Sunday before the next Prompt is posted.
- It is always helpful if you can give your post/story/poem a title.
- There are issues with pingbacks in WordPress these days. So please
paste a link to your post in the comments section so that I don’t miss
anyone in the roundup post. - Please tag your responses with WDYS
To coalesce with the importance of the celebration I share a similar sentiment
that I hope embraces and encourages all women in the world today.
FOR ALL DAUGHTERS
Before you were conceived I conjured you before you were of this world you were born in me. Fold of my flesh I carried in my womb when you were born I was ready for you. I’m rejuvenated with the miracle of you— no one belongs here more than you do. © selma
Happy International Women’s Day
I’m a simple woman who dares to see the beauty in ordinary. I’d love to connect with you and like pen pals, I want something beautiful to blossom between us. Will you join me? Selma is my middle name. Its meaning—peaceful, complete, are euphoric affirmations I like to think of myself as having. They compliment the joy I feel when I write. I sincerely hope you decide to join me on my writing journey. I Wish You Miracles.
