Words that struck a chord | I tried my hand at vertical reading creative writing!

*Word count of this article: approx. 700 characters*

Mikiko🌿Seasonal Flower Calendar's articles always bring a refreshing breeze that makes me stop and think.
Her wonderful words, "Creativity is born from constraints," struck right at the center of my heart✨

Mikiko is taking on the challenge of vertical reading ✖️ nonsense poetry.
As soon as I read it,
I wanted to do it, I wanted to do it, I wanted to do it!!

The urge welled up inside me.

I learned from Mikiko's article that the original organizer is
No matter how old you get🍀Call me Mi🦦san.

Here is the prompt for participation👇

I will immediately take on the challenge of Mi-san's vertical reading project♡
I wrote this using prompt ①: "Let's spread the circle of smiles together"!

MiI don't want to pretend it didn't happen.
nThe feelings I felt when I wondered "?".
naI want to understand the reason for the waves.
deShall I try writing it out, just as I feel?
HiWhile it spreads,
gethere are times when I feel down, of course. But,
yoif I observe myself closely,
uwhen I'm feeling excited,
WaI don't care if people laugh at me.
KaI don't even notice if I have ketchup on my face.
noCall me Nozomin!
WaI want to walk with you in the circle.

I want to connect with you just as I am.

I wrote this with those feelings in mind.

Fitting a theme into a short piece of writing,
choosing the words.

It was like a puzzle, and it was fun through trial and error.

Mi-san♡
