Happy April!
From Robert Brewer at Writer's Digest...here is today's prompt.
"It's time for the first day of the 2024 April Poem-A-Day Challenge! Each day, I'll provide a poetry prompt and a poem to get things started. You can secretly poem along at home, or you can share your poem in the comments below.
For today's prompt, write an optimistic poem. I find the beginnings of things to be a time of great optimism. Whether it's the beginning of a sporting season or a month (or even a week), there's so much opportunity available. But optimism can exist anywhere and at any time; so don't limit your optimism to the beginnings of things."
Make a joyful noise to the LORD,
2Serve the LORD with gladness;
come into His presence with joyful songs.
3Know that the LORD is God.
It is He who made us, and we are His;a
we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.
4Enter His gates with thanksgiving
and His courts with praise;
give thanks to Him and bless His name.
5For the LORD is good,
and His loving devotion endures forever;
His faithfulness continues to all generations.

Or, So It Seemed to the Dreamer...
PAD Challenge, day 2: For today’s prompt, write a childhood object poem.
up and away
undefined
by time and place
brushing perimeters of space
or so it seemed
to the dreamer,
then
with honey-colored braids
and an insatiable
yen
that turned out to be
the cocoon that cradled
Poetry...
On that rope swing
she would try
to touch the sky
...the monotony of
an endless July
afternoon
no match for the butterfly
inside the
cocoon...
