For today's prompt, write a snapshot poem. When I think of snapshot, I think of a photograph or painting still life. The poem would bring this particular moment to life. However, if you have another interpretation, I encourage you to follow your muse.
Here's my attempt:
"Saturday morning"
He's sprawled out on the bed
watching the wind shake the leaves
and branches. The sun slides through
the slats of the blinds. She snuggles
next to him and listens to his heart
beat hard and slow. They stay
that way most of the morning;
after all, there is no alarm.

Media expert Jane Friedman provides The 5 Essential Components of a Strong Author Website in her OnDemand webinar that has helped several authors create a website that works for them, instead of against them.
