My poem for day 21 of NaPoWriMo is about the lost world of the fae. We have reasoned so much magic out of the world in our search for the future. Maybe our lives are poorer for it. Enjoy! Faedreaming I dreamed a dream of peaceful wood All leafy and serene. And through it flitted…

When I was younger, I used to think that anyone who disagreed with me was wrong. More to the point, I didn’t hesitate to tell them how wrong they were. Usually as hurtful as possible. Not a really pleasant trait. So I decided to change it. My day 20 NaPoWriMo offering is about that effort.…

Here we are at day nineteen of the NaPoWriMo challenge. Throughout this process as in everything, Lynn has been incredibly supportive of me. I realized that in amongst all the rest I had yet to write her a love poem. Today I would rectify that oversight. Enjoy! Lucky In Love My love she is a…

When I was a child, I suffered from extremely vivid nightmares. I would awake from them utterly convinced of their reality. A couple of cries in the night quickly established my father’s impatience with such behaviour. The realization that my father wasn’t going to help me was, in its own way, more terrifying than the…

I’m a huge fan of nature documentaries. I have been since I was a kid. At this time, I’ve got to say nobody can hold a candle to the BBC. I recently picked up BBC Africa. While watching the first episode, I was reminded again of just how much I love their work. My 17th…

NaPoWriMo Day 16 and it’s time for a ghost poem. This one is for all the busy little “psychic investigators” out there on reality TV.

Today marks the halfway point in the NaPoWriMo challenge. So naturally, I had absolutely no clue what to write. As I was stressing about it, I began devising rhymes about my problem. Here is the result. Enjoy! Writer’s Block I sit here and I ponder what To write I have no clue. At fifteen yarns…

As I sneak up on the midpoint of the NaPoWriMo challenge, I wanted to get a bit more personal again. I’ve been the person who assumed their view was the only one. Fortunately, I’m slowly growing out of it. This poem is about the need to make that change, both as individuals and a society.…

Today’s NaPoWriMo entry grew out of just the first two lines. They were all I had when I started it. There was no sense of narrative or where it might go. I just allowed it the freedom to write itself. Probably the closest thing in here to “stream of consciousness”. Let me know what you…

My first poem of the day was a bit heavy and political. This one’s a little lighter and fluffier. Elsewhere on this blog, I wrote about “The Penguin and the Snake: A Parable About Self – Acceptance”. This is sort of a prequel. Enjoy! Penguin Dreams A penguin sat upon the ice And stared up…
