Warm up Writing A to Z

Do you need a mind tweek and brain twist? Playing with words for rhythm and first letter repetition may ease you into discoveries.

Pablo Neruda has a series of questions that inspire wonder and writing.  How does the rose admire itself by changing the color of its dreams? Where does the lizard's tail buy fresh paint?

Begin a series of free flow notions and questions. Go for absurd and unlikely as you make your way down the alphabet. Add the spice of humor.

Follow an Amazement into the Amazon.
Imagine ballooning into Beethoven.
Does a Cantaloup need candor?
Could a Donkey fit on a dime?
Erupt into pumpkin laughter.
Capture a flea on a flugal horn.
Gallop in a gallon.
Notice a Hologram in a harness.
Watch as an Idiot forms into an idiom.
Behold a Juror inside a jelly jar.
Catch a Klepto in a kitchen sink.
Smell a Lemon in a light switch.
Monkey with a maze.
Naughty the daylight into a nugget.
Find an Osprey in a owl's ear.
Petticoat in Petaluma
Seek Quiet in a quorum
Ride Restless in a rain forest
Will Silly pat the sycopant?
Tryst in a triptic
Rage in Underwear for Ulysses.
Sprout victorious in a vegetable garden
Get wistful in Kentucky.
Find x-rays in a Xylophone moment.
Yodel in yosemite.
Zoo into zenith.
