Well, it’s only appropriate that, since my last post was about NaNoWriMo, this one will be about NaPoWriMo. Is ‘appropriate’ the right word?
I’m not planning on any running theme or anything special (that would be a shouted invitation to the twin demons of Perfectionism and False Accomplishment, parents to Procrastination and grandparents of… well, you get the idea). Just poems. I might try and cut my teeth on a few poetic forms that I’m not acquainted with, but no promises.
Special shout out to Oaxaca for bringing NaPoWriMo to my attention!
Day 1
a winter morning
yields to autumn winds, and spring
falls further away
For today’s poem, I went with a haiku (because it was a long day) about the obnoxious weather. I know, how pedestrian could I get, right?
We woke up and there was snow covering the ground (not to mention falling from the sky), and the rest of the day was full of crisp winds! It only began feeling like spring right before sunset. Nature’s little April Fools joke, I guess.
