Last Week’s Prompts

If you are a week (or more) behind as I am, let’s just go back in the calendar and write a poem for then. Here are the prompts I intended to post:

Go back in time. Write a poem with big words. Make the dictionary proud. Or check out Merriam-Webster’s Word of the Day for your prompt. Here are a couple of words that may get you started. Remember, using a word with “z” and “q” gets you the most points!

And for April 15th, write a sonnet to the IRS. Or perhaps history is more to your liking: Abraham Lincoln was shot on the 14th but died the next day. The sinking of the Titanic lasted from April 14-15th.

Don’t forget to write an ode to a librarian or a mushroom.

And, finally, I am sorry to have missed celebrating International Haiku Day. Write a haiku. Below are some famous examples. Check out this site for more.

Good luck with the 30/30 challenge! Looks like I will be writing 5 or more a day near the end of April….

Here is a weird fungus if you need some inspiration for mushroom day.
