NaBloPoMo in April

This is not to be confused with my own personal NaNoWriMo for April, in which I’ve committed to adding 50,000 words to the first novel in my and Megan’s nine-book series.

In the Beginning
Nothing, expanded.
Blueprinted. Released.
Designed and planned for.

In the Beginning
Foundations laid.
Strength. Support.
Far-reaching.
Sun and moon and stars all over.

First
Fresh and new.
Structure.

Water and wood and
Green and blue

Views into the unknown.
Doors to the future
Expanding foundation.

Stairs and guards and patios and cellars
For climbing and protecting
And sharing and hiding.

Second
Learning, growing.
Planting roots, planting beauty.
Adding color, adding room.

Keeping up, trimming back
Filling out, fixing up
Settling in.

Third
Decorating.
Creating, remembering.
Mistakes, majesties.

Fourth
Repairs and hard work… read the rest. . .
