Discover Amazement

       Write Six Words

A smile, the sight of a small flower growing in the crack of cement pavement, a fall of rich cloth in a shop window, the way the sunlights up flower pots on a windowsill. Be alert for any signs of beauty or grace. Offer up every joy, be awake at all moments. to the news that is always arriving out of silence. - Sogyal Rinpoche















Respond to each question in six words.  Go for nouns and verbs.  If you must use an adjective, make it
 startle the noun.

Where do you discover amazement in life?

     How does a scent remind you of an emotion?

         Where does a taste take you back in time?

              Describe a favorite song.

                   What makes you laugh?

                                 Show a color's effect.

                        Write six sound words like kableem or skeech.

After you create your six word responses, mix them up.  Notice where they might re-arrange themselves in a poem.

Let the words lead your writing with nuances and fun.
