WriteOut* and Daily Create
Today’s WriteOut includes this Daily Create prompt for the above photo:
This statue — entitled “For Betsy” by Carolyn Wirth — is part of the DeVries Sculpture Trail in Western Massachusetts, USA, and is located, along with a selection of others, in a wooded area, next to a river. For today’s prompt, imagine what she’s thinking here, and write a small poem or prose piece about her.

Daily Create Prompt
As I close my eyes today, I think, “People divided need unity in coexistence. A world at war needs peace. An earth in crisis needs solutions. Children today need a future. So she dreams.“
And so my poem of the girl in the woods…
Poetry
She Dreams
From the city
Sheri Edwards
she comes,
by the river
she lives,
In the woods
she wanders,
with the birds
she sings,
for the world
she hopes,
for its life
she foresees,
for coexistence
she prays,
for compassion,
she dreams.

This post is part of the October WRITEOUT adventure, October 8 through the 22nd, partnership of the National Writing Project and the National Park Service — a choice to enjoy the outdoors with poetry, prose, and parks for Write Out 2023. Organized as a public invitation to get out and create, supported by a series of free online activities, Write Out invites educators, students, and families to explore national parks and other public spaces. The goal is to connect and learn through place-based writing and sharing. Check out this infographic for the flow of the two weeks.
