Carry On Tuesday # 160

Sorry I've not been around much during the past week. I'm ashamed to admit that I've not even written anything myself over at Keiths Ramblings since May 26th!  This week I'm determined to put things right (or should that be 'write'?)

This week our prompt is part of the opening line of Walter de la Mare's poem The Listeners

Is there anybody there?

Use all or part of it at the start or within your short story or poem then leave your URL with Mister Linky. Then take a look at what your fellow Carry On folk have made of it.

To read The Listeners in full, drop by Carry On Tuesday Plus. It's worth a few minutes of your time!

  1. I hope you're happily settled now. My poem is about 'home'....well, sort of.

  2. I don't know what all is happening in your life, but you've referenced a move...so...that in and of itself is enough to have a pass on not writing for a bit. Take a deep breath...relax a bit as you slowly exhale. And if words come out at the same time, great. If not...we ARE out here...and will be, when you're settled enough to set things write. ;) Blessings! PW

  4. You wear me out just thinking about your traveling and moving and just think about poor Rosey...she must be in a total dither...come on my man...drag her out of the closet and buy her a pint of England's finest...

    I have not forsaken you...had a fall and hit my head, needed stitches and thought it "was nothing" but see that I haven't done much writing.

    Will try to do better. Am sticking a big note where I write that I MUST I Must do this ☺.

    Peace,

    1. Oh dear - I trust you are on the mend. I've not written for ages so I think I'll take up your idea and leave myself a note!

  9. This one hurt a little to write, but it ended up cathartic.
