Mewsings from a Bardic Bird 🌟 Birth, Salty – 04-21-23

πŸ’š πŸ€ πŸ’š

A bit of a game, a puzzle, In Which I take two randomly-chosen words, fly to the Cauldron of Creativity, and bring back words - of Thought, of Story - to help you along your Creative Path.

The title piccy for the Mewsletter, containing a Most Kyoot + Fluffy Feline on the left with Rocko the Bold Circus Kitten kneading their furr and a large Raven flying over a red landscape on the right, all on a bed of Rocco the Cat's furr. Words are as follows and I do indeed quote: Mewsings from a Bardic Bird.Today’s Mewsings Word: Birth

Today’s Mewsing: Stories – creations – reflect who we are at any given time.

And change with the era we live in.

So every time we come to create, we birth a reflection of who we are, of the times and places we are living in.

The truest kind of history there is.

The title piccy for the Wonderland Section of the Mewsletter, containing a Most Kyoot + Fluffy Feline on the left with Rocko the Bold Circus Kitten kneading their furr and a large Raven flying over a red landscape on the right, all on a bed of Rocco the Cat's furr. Words are as follows and I do indeed quote: Mewsings from a Bardic Bird in Wonderland.Today’s Mewsings in Wonderland Word: Salty

Today’s Mewsing in Wonderland: There was no doubt that the air was salty down at the Harbor in Catpitol City. Literal salt, hanging in the air and on the rocks and wood beams where the waves washed in and out, as regular as breathing.

Salty in another sense too, over at the Harborside Inn, a.k.a. the Turquoise Tern. A dockside tavern, and not the most genial of places. But, rough as the language might be, it was only that. Violence was not condoned at the Tern – was a great way to get kicked out of it, in fact, never to be allowed to return.

So, while people did not have to watch their tongues at the Turquoise Tern, they did have to mind their manners and their intents.

And, sometimes to their surprise, they did.

For the Tern was too special a place to lose – especially for such reasons.

So they made sure to keep the salt civil and the days – and nights – went on in peace.

On a background of orange tabby cat furr, there is a line graphic of a tabby-cat sitting at a table podcasting, with headphones over their ears, one front paw holding a bunch of papers and the other resting on the table. A big microphone hangs from above in front of them, on which a crow is walking. Rocko is walking on the table, heading for the recording cat’s cup of beverage. Above them all, in white text, the words β€˜Kitten & Crow: CrowCreating’ are written.On the Creative Path, one purrforms a series of expurriments, to see what works for you, for your Audience.

This Expurriment comes from the fact that Creativity encompasses both the Waking World and the Wider World. Why not the Mewsings as well?
