    I am so happy to see this series back, Brenda. "Chance" is a great prompt, and I love the video "To Be A Poet" by Aubrey Marcus.

      Hello Brenda!
      So good to see the word prompt article back. I liked reading it, filled with emotions, which made me emotional too. I just wish You to be happy, in whatever you do.
      I have enjoyed reading all the excellent responses to ‘Puzzle.’
      ‘Chance’ is an interesting word Prompt, and looking forward to read the creative responses from the talented writers.
      Thank you for sharing.
      Thank you John, for sharing Brenda’s article.

        Thank you Chitrangada.

        I've been on an emotional roller coaster, but everyone from Hubpages has helped to keep me on the right track.

        I take each day as it comes trying to be happy for the little things.

        Take care.

      Brenda, I guess you didn't get my response to this share which I posted 7 hours ago. So here it is again:

      I am happy too Brenda is back with her word prompt series. I think the word prompt for week 51, "Chance" is a good one. It was nice to go through the quotes and the highlights of responses based on the previous prompt, "Puzzle."

      Thank you, John, for sharing Brenda's word prompt and her article.

    Hi Brenda, good to have you back with your inspiring word prompts. We can go back to exercising our creative poetic brain again. Of late my muse seems to lack motivation. This prompt will provide an impetus for her to awake up and think. Thanks and welcome back.

        Hi Brenda,
        Thanks a lot for appreciating my response to word prompt 'Puzzle'. I was touched by your words. I am so sorry if it made your emotional. I wrote it from my heart. I really appreciate your bravery and strength. Good to have you back. Taking things slow, one day at a time will help. Take care dear friend, stay blessed.

          Thank you so much.  It feels good to be Back.  I just wish I could do more, But right now I've injured my right hand and I'm right handed.

          It will be fine in a few days I'm sure.

          Being emotional is OK speaking from your heart is what we're supposed to.

          Thank you I appreciate everything.

    It is wonderful to have you back Brenda. I know we like to be inspired by your poetry and of course, your word prompts. You have been down a long road, and so many of us care about you.

    I just wrote some poems as I didn't know I would have a new word prompt from you, but I enjoyed reading your article. I think your words are so true as none of know how long we have in this world.

    Thanks for posting Brenda's article John.

      Thank you so much for your friendship & kindness.

      I honestly don't think I would be here without my Hubber friends. The support has really helped me, but
      the Hubpages team didn't even send me a note. 

      I hope to get started on reading.  I've got alot to get caught up on.
      Including one you wrote for another prompt.

      Take care & I hope you are feeling much better now.

      Ruby
      It's great to have you at Hubpages.   Welcome!

      We'd love to have you write with us.
      This is a series I usually write weekly, but I'm behind schedule since my boyfriend passed away in February.

      If you write onecfor the wird prompt, be sure to put a text box in that states this is for the word prompt.
      Then shoot me an email if I don't see it.

      Thanks & happy writing.

    Ruby...
    I just finished reading your poem and will post it along with my comments in a moment.

    Since you are new to Hubpages you didn't know...
    The team at Hubpages won't let us share our own link on the newsfeed...
    We use to have a comnent section below each article, but that has drifted away into no man's land.

    In any case...I don't want you to get into any trouble with the team.

    Your work is good.

        Hey Ruby...
        It's no big deal to us Hubbers.

        We'd love to be able to post our own work, but it's the team from Hubpages that says we can't...i don't get it either.

        We write our work & then hope another Hubber post it on the newsfeed for us to discuss.

        The good thing about the word prompt is that we all seem to work together to showcase each others work.
