I hope your week is off to a creative start. It’s a while since I posted this prompt – February in fact – so I thought I’d put the call out there again. Rhyming poems do far outnumber the non-rhyming poems I receive for Poem of the Day, but there’s always space for more. I love playing around with different rhyme patterns. I hope you do too. Send your poems to me at traffa-m@bigpond.net.au as a Word or text document attachment and add a line or two about your writing process. Don’t forget, if you’ve missed a prompt from previous weeks, you can always catch up.

Happy writing!

It’s prompt time again and because the buccaneer/broccoli one inspired so many wonderful poems I thought we’d do it again with a new set of words. Have fun and see what you come up with.

Happy Monday! This week’s prompt is ancient ruins. I’ll be really interested to see what you come up with. I can never predict how much response there will be to the various prompts I’ve been posting each week this year.

Front runners so far would be the pickle and buccaneer prompts. They clearly stimulated the imagination. Thanks to everyone who’s been so enthusiastically submitting poems to the site. I love reading your submissions. Send your poems to me at traffa-m@bigpond.net.au as a Word or text document attachment and add a line or two about your writing process.

It’s Monday again and poetry prompt time. Don’t the days simply fly by? I’m sure the calendar is on permanent fast forward.

Remember being a kid and insisting what you will or won’t do? I know I do! Last week’s Pickle prompt inspired so many wonderful poems. I hope you are as inspired this week.
