NaPoWriMo Day 12 Ode To An Un-Named Season Winter’s garb of brilliant white Rent now, drab, grey, grubby Make way now, new beauty comes Verdant, life, sap rising Birds cluster ‘midst new buds Mates call, sing, chirp, whistle Stunning blossoms soon appear Bees hum, zip, sip, working Vernal sun now warms the land Ground thaws,…

NaPoWriMo Day 11 Ode to Penguins With wings that never graced the air You hop and waddle everywhere As ‘cross the windswept ice you fare Though freezing for your egg you care. On land you’re graceless as can be A bowling pin with wings we see No humans want your land you’re free And you…

NaPoWriMo Day 4 Today’s prompt was “Morning”. There is a place I love next to a lake. I love to sit on the west bank of the lake and watch the sun come up across the water. It truly is the best reason to get up ludicrously early on a weekend. This poem is about…

NaPoWriMo Day 3 Today’s is a little darker. For those of you who have been around since my first shot at NaPoWriMo back in 2013 you may recognize this from day five of that first year.
