Steaming Soup

Author's note~ This was a stream of consciousness where the concrete image was a bowl of steaming soup.

The first thing I notice when I come in is the bowl of steaming soup waiting for me on the table. I hang up my coat and sit down, looking into the bowl of soup. The steam rising up thaws my face, and I can't wait to start eating. I was just outside in the cold, snowy weather, and as I take the first spoonful it warms me up from the inside. I feel refreshed, and I take my next slurp, and the next, until the bowl is empty.

  1. First off, I think this is a really cool entry from the journal. I like the vivid details, and sensory images you use. I would say though, that I am concerned that you may be getting in the habit of taking a journal entry and posting right to the blog, which is not a good practice. You'll want to develop the pieces you write so that they are a real form of writing -- paragraphs, introduction, etc.
