Poem Pocket

All Aboard the Meme Express –Thursday, April 30, 2009


April is National Poetry Month.
Are you participating in the challenge?


April 30th marks the end of National Poetry Month in the U.S. (and Poetry Month elsewhere). To celebrate, this day is also Poem in Your Pocket Day.


Today’s Meme Express prompt is twofold:


poem

pocket


Here are a few optional questions, just to get you going:


Do you have a favorite poet?

What is your favorite poem?

What poetic form/s do you like the best?

Will you carry a poem in your pocket today?

What poem?

With whom will you share it?

Do you write poetry?

Have you participated in Poetry Month?

Did you write at least one poem per day? (I did.)

How about writing a poem today (and sharing your link with us here)?


Perhaps this concept will inspire you to create a drawing, a poem, a short story, or a journal entry. Then return here to leave a comment with your link. (Be sure to include a link to the Meme Express. Grab our train graphic from the sidebar for your link, if you want.)

Of course, if this prompt seems to stump you, feel free to peruse the archives of the Meme Express and publish a blog post on an earlier prompt.


Throughout 2009, please join us at The Heart of a Ready Writer, a Bible reading and devotional blog, as we read through the entire Bible in chronological order.
