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. This isn’t really laziness, I just don’t think I could produce anything which would better represent the prompt of…

NaPoWriMo Day 2 The prompt for day two was to write about a beloved childhood object you still have. I didn’t have much as a kid, and less still has made it this far with me. But books are something I tend to hold onto. One in particular fit this. The Collected Works of Rudyard…

It’s the twenty-ninth today and I’m starting to run out of ideas. Then as I was drawing the image in the previous post, I decided to do a poem set in the Warhammer 40k universe. I understand completely if most don’t care for it, it’s a bit more “niche” than most of what I write.…

Before coming to write today’s poem I said, “I love you very much.” to my wife. It’s something I say to her… a lot. So much, that sometimes I worry she thinks it’s just automatic. This poem is about that. Enjoy! I Love You…. Seriously… I Mean It So many times each day you hear,…

I’ve had a long day, so I’m going to keep this short today. The following rhyme is what happens when I write when I’m so tired I’m literally dozing off while typing. Enjoy! Stream of Unconciousness I’m far too tired to make words work, Or bend them to my will, My day’s been long and…

As i was sitting and wondering what to write about tonight, my dog came and asked me why we hadn’t gone to bed yet. So yes, tonight’s poem is about Ducky. Enjoy! Our Amazing Puppy There is a puppy that I love, This Ducky boy so sweet, He’s gentle and adorable, And has the cutest…

I was talking with a friend about the issue I’m having with the person from yesterday’s poem. He philosophically observed, “You can’t fix stupid.” This is commonly accepted wisdom, but it got me thinking. This poem came from that. Enjoy! You Can’t Fix Stupid “You can’t fix stupid.” so they say, I tell you that’s…
