Hope everyone is enjoying National Poetry Month and gets lots of good work done. If you haven’t already, I encourage you to follow Robert Lee Brewer’s Poetic Asides blog for a daily prompt this month. Here’s what he offered this morning.
For today’s prompt, write a favorite poem. Maybe that sounds a bit silly, but what I mean is to write a poem about something that’s your favorite. A favorite teacher. Favorite movie. Favorite ice cream flavor. I don’t know, because I have my own list of favorites. Only you can do you…and your favorites. Who knows? Maybe this will end up being your favorite prompt this month.
