I have participated in National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo) since 2014. I usually work on drafts of poems during the year and post them during April. This year my poetic rationale has been transformed from that of previous years. For 2019 I plan to try to follow some of the prompts, though perhaps not all. I have a hard time putting poems out there that have not been obsessively worked on, so this year will be a change for me. I prefer structured rhymed verse to free verse, but I am going to attempt some less-structured writing this year. Here is my prefatory April poem from 2017:
Name that metaphor (half-assed boating)
Polish the brass on your life preserver
Wring out some meaning for dockside observer:
Moorings are tenuous; life is floating.
I am looking forward to reading your poems again (although I have been lurking and reading anyway!)! 🙂

Thanks for visiting/lurking.
Your lyrical presence means poetry is ready to spring forth.

Always happy if my presence is associated with poetry, thank you! I am looking forward to a new adventure, though! 🙂
