It was a great question. And such diverse responses. That's Juke. Thank you Tonya. Spring day in Manhattan. Carrying hope, just a blue sky and sunny day.
I wondered what Tonya meant when she asked what we were carrying. Turns out, the ambiguity was a really good thing. I’m astonished at the variety of the interpretations of that simple question.
Soos, I appreciate your honesty.
Sean, wow, what a poem!
Tabby, ditto!
Paul, wonderful exploration of the material and the ephemeral.
Ned, I’m checking that book out of the library.
And Tonya, I wish I could carry less with me when I venture out, too, but the notebook and pen are with me always.
I'm so happy you ended up liking the prompt! The ambiguity is definitely my favorite part. It's always so fascinating what happens when everyone just does their own thing.
This may be my favorite of the communal Juke columns to day. Thanks to you all for sharing what you're carrying - and what you're not carrying.
Happy Friday! the responses from all made my day. thanks Tonya and everyone.
This has got to be the best smorgasbord ever, Tonya. The poems. The breadth of topics. WOW! Thank you.
I agree! The responses this time were all so fantastic. It makes me wish I could get you guys to do this more often!
🤣 Well, you know I'm game.
Happy birthday, everyone!!

That was the best read I've had in a long time! Everybody's answer resonated with me in some way. I'm gonna get a cup of coffee and read it all again!
So excited that you are an active part of the JUKE community, Sean.
Thank you, sir. It's great to be back in contact with you.
