A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song. ~Maya Angelou

While lounging around in bed this morning, I showed Chilly that I could slow down and speed up my heart by thinking about it.

 

Chilly: That's a super power. We'll call you the Heartbeater! Think of all the ways you could use it!

Me (in a nasal-y voice): Ma'am. This is your grocery bill total. *dieing sound, sort of like "ungkk"* Oh no! Guess we better load the groceries into her car...

Chilly: What's that? You're looking at big screen televisions?

Me: *Ungkk*

 

One good exchange leads to another... specifically Creativity Exchange, Season 2, Week Three.

 

Below you will read TheRacket's wonderful haiku with my photographic response. I had so much fun with this one. And if I may suggest, please read the haiku outloud. It flourishes on the tongue. Go here (link to come) to see the other collaboration.
