| Prompts for 2016 |
I'm not sure if I can keep up with this, but it is NaPoWriMo 2016! I didn't participate in 2015, I did in 2014 and in 2013. I created poems for NaPoWro 2010 - not as faithfully as in 2009 (National Poetry Writing Month 2009). This year's prompts seem to be more topical, than having us work with particular forms. I like the challenge of a particular rhyme scheme and framework.
We'll see how this goes!
Yes, I'm running behind. It's a journey, not a race!

"Seagulls sing when sewing socks":
"Down the drain the donkeys dive":
"Lions leap on lambs alive":

Genius to alliterate.

HOW ABOUT YOU AND ME ALLITERATING?
Alliteration's artful aid–
That is what the poet said:
