Prompt #12 for 2010: Reunion

Welcome to Writer’s Island.

New prompt(s) are posted every Saturday. Consider the prompt in depth, then let inspiration carry you. When you feel what you’ve written is ready to be read by the other Islanders, just post your link right here in the comments section at the bottom of this post. Please leave whatever expanded comment you wish as a part of your posted link. You can also reply directly to any other comment.

••> The twelfth prompt for 2010 involves the act of coming back together. The prompt is: REUNION… Is there a reunion in your future, one you have just experienced, or perhaps one you wish could happen? Does it involve old friends, maybe a lover — or does it surround a particular event? Is this sparked by good memories or ones you’d like to forget?

Maybe you offer a grand or an intimate reunion that is completely imagined! Tell us in your words (poem, prose, flash fiction, or…) the who, what, where, when, why or how regarding being reunited — include any visual image you might want to incorporate.

Relax, respond to the prompt when you’re ready — or just leave a comment to say hi! As always, welcome to the the Island!!! 😉

    Interesting prompt. Reunions, it almost seems irrelevant with the invention of social networking sites. Here is my take on the prompt. I’ve called it, Free of the Past.

      Interesting perspective Weasel, thanks for sharing… An old beachcomber like me has many friends that have sailed over the horizon into the sunset, so reunion has many connotations to me… 😉

    Interesting prompt. I missed you the last couple of weeks. Life gets busy, prompts get missed. It’s nice to be back! Here’s what came for me:

    Here’s mine; it’s not exactly about a reunion and the poems are ones I wrote a few years ago and not about reunions either, but it is kind of on-prompt.

      Nice to see you on the Island again Bonnie, and I ‘fixed’ your post so you can now click on your poem’s title and be taken to the poem — hope that’s OK… 😉

    Actually fulfilling a Bucket List dream. Traveling cross country to deliver a used car to my daughter, meeting up with LA musician contacts. But mostly, it’s about me and my Riley…

      Welcome to Writer’s Island Anirudh! I “fixed” your post so it was not duplicated, and I placed a link directly to your piece, in the body of your comment post here. Will be pleased to see you become a regular here on the Island… 😉
