A beautiful evening in the city:
flowers other than pansies
before Mother’s Day, fragrance
of two dozen roses just shined—
and I need some ideas if we are able
to go outside, like pick up another
smaller grill, talk to the people
you love, host a front-yard picnic
The NaPoWriMo prompt for Day 17 was to write a social-media poem. The above is based on Facebook status updates and is just about the right speed for a Saturday.
Fun! What a great exercise. And I like how talking to people you love is just on a list of ‘maybes’. 🙂

What a cool idea – this I want to try! And it does sound like a sunny, lazy weekend day.

I agree! A relaxed rhythm for (mainly) inconsequential things. I read this yesterday and lost internet before I could like. Like 🙂

Thanks. It’s nice to have a low-pressure prompt for uninspired days. or maybe the moral is, Poetry is all around–go find it!

It is all around, but sometimes the words to describe it don’t come. What I find anyway.
