Put down
You’ll always put me down, Because to you I’m nothing more, But when I was with you, You said you loved me so, But now that we are apart, I’m the worst person in the world, But when I was in your car, It was like I was always going to be your friend, And you cannot control me, So that makes me the enemy, You cannot confront me, So that takes all your energy, You cannot shame me, But…

A world
You showed me a world of colour, A life as juicy as a pear, You gave me a guide to follow, Before you left, with her, How love can overshadow, The darkness of the night, How happiness is comfort, When you do it right, You showed me a world of beauty, Arts and Culture and craft, Craft of being unique, And never looking back.

Day 10 (Wednesday) Napowrimo prompt
Ezra Pound famously said that “poetry is news that stays news.” While we don’t know about that, the news can have a certain poetry to it. Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a poem based on one of the curious headlines, cartoons, and other journalistic tidbits featured at Yesterday’s Print, where old new stays amusing, curious, and sometimes downright confusing. Escaped parrot causes…

Day 8 prompt
Prompt for the day takes its inspiration from Laura Foley’s poem “Year End.” Today, we challenge you to write a poem that centers around an encounter or relationship between two people (or things) that shouldn’t really have ever met – whether due to time, space, age, the differences in their nature, or for any other reason. Benjamin Button you were born ugly and frail, like no baby that this…

First Sunday of Na/ #NaPoWriMo
Prompt : postcards : wish you were here DAY 6 Henry, hello love, I’ve been meaning to send you a postcard for some days but I get caught up looking at the waves and the sea. It’s such a beautiful place to be, especially when the sun beams, but Natty forgot the sun cream so I have sunburn across my face in the shape of sunglasses. I’ll try and bring you a stick of rock back I know you said…

Day 6 ...well doesn't time fly by NaPoWriMo
don't pull a face
‘Today’s we’d like to challenge you to write a poem rooted in “weird wisdom,” by which we mean something objectively odd that someone told you once, and that has stuck with you ever since. Need an example? Check out Naomi Shihab Nye’s poem “Making a Fist.”’ from https://www.napowrimo.net/ Pulling a face I was 7, we walked across the sand, and the sand felt grand, but not when the ice cream in…

Day 2 of #NaPoWriMo month !!
**Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a platonic love poem. In other words, a poem not about a romantic partner, but some other kind of love – your love for your sister, or a friend, or even your love for a really good Chicago deep dish pizza. The poem should be written directly to the object of your affections (like a letter is written to “you”), and should describe at least three…

Loved you
I loved you because things seemed simple You had less time to worry about the small things And you was able to enjoy all your hobbies A trip to shop was just for milk For me it was an entire family’s worth of meals My hobbies where on hold which I knew would be the case till I turned 40 You had already turned 40 And 50 You lied about your age and hid your birthday You didn’t enjoy…

How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals?
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? I don’t. I find it very hard to say no and create boundaries I often want to help others reach their goals more than myself, I neglect myself to help others. I find it hard to say no when I have said no in the past and faced awful consequences and often it’s not easy to even say the word “NO”. I have realised as I am…

What's a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? My childhood was very odd, it was hectic and jumpy. It’s difficult to write about it as I’m not an anonymous writer and my name displays in my writing, I am still yet to find a way to write a story about some things I feel would be interesting to write. I used to think I was psychic when I was younger that I could predict when things…

What is your favorite type of weather?
What is your favorite type of weather? I love most weather, I find it hard in winter when it’s really cold. I had a bad winter a few years ago where I couldn’t put the heating on. I lived on my own in a big Victorian house. I would make sure the children’s radiator was on but I would turn off some others just to make the cost stay low. This was before the huge inflation. I like spring because I…
