A new blog to contain answers to prompts

Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas Open in new Window. became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one.


Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.

Prompt:
Have fun with these 10 words in your entry: tooth, crown, tumor, leak, clear, survival, reflection, blank and Kermes

------
Elegy to Life

shadow and fire carved *survival
now that the *tooth of time
is wearing a false *crown

like distant dreams in *Kermes red
as within their mask, a *tumor coils
while I measure *leak and loss

then, in *reflection, I judge my fate
for the hourglass glares *clear,
and a *blank chronicle writes itself
