I am trying ‘Freeform Fridays one more time to see if it takes root. The rules are simple but I’ve included lots of ideas. If you’re interested, submit your work by pingback or in the comment section below. No judgments, just sharing and exploration with a weekly roundup.

Why not try mixing forms to find new shapes, or working with a scent or found text? We can explore and create new shapes to our words.
Happy creating, Antonia.

Dampened and decorated
By participating rain

Temporal spirals:
a dance.
Cold, with light
I love the this; particularly the phrase ‘participating rain’. Thank-you for contributing your work!
Thanks Antonia for the lovely word prompts! ❤
