Poetry Prompts and Inspiration Day 29 April PAD Challenge and NaPoWriMo

 


Serendipity! Owls and meat, all in one picture!


Today's April PAD Challenge prompt asks participants to write a sight poem.


Today's NaPoWriMo prompt asks participants to start by reading Alberto Rios’s poem “Perfect for Any Occasion.” 


Next, write your own two-part poem that focuses on food. At some point in the poem, describe the food as if it were a person. Give the food/meal at least one line of spoken dialogue.

My poem focused on the age-old "I tried to change my carnivorous ways" conundrum. The food does "speak," but I didn't describe it as if it were a person. I was going for carnivorous, not cannibalistic. 

I'm keeping it brief today as I need to hop on the Editing Express Elevator to Hell.

Going down!

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
