Usually, during the month of April, I round up a few word-smithery friends and ask them to share poetry on my blog. If I feel inspired, I might add one of my own, but that's a rare occurrence. This year I was so caught up in the perpetual winter that March slid into April before I realized what was happening. Now, I'm left with a conundrum... I can't just let
NaPoWriMo slip by uncelebrated. I might not write poetry, but I do enjoy it.
So...
I'm taking a gigantic step out of my comfort zone and am going to attempt to write one poem a day during the month of April. Don't get excited - it probably won't last as I have commitment issues.
In the meantime, enjoy it while it lasts:
Poet for a Month
A poem a day?
What's that you say?
Try something new?
It takes but a moment or two...
Yup - I think I'll play
And become a poet before May.
I am so proud of you! Here I am, a poet, not writing poetry this month (I'm trying to come up with a plot for a certain second novel!) and look at YOU! This is growth. This is fantastic. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Heather. Maybe I'll get up the nerve to put it all together at the end of the month and do something fun with it. :)
