Such a great poem Walt, keep up the great writing! I absolutely love this! ❤️
Thanks to Michelle of Putting My Feet In The Dirt
for the inspiration I got when I read her list of
daily prompts for the month of December.
I am a Poet… a Writer
I sit here Weaving Words
As I think about Thistles and thorns
As I write I worry about Vermicious Knids
That are Dripping with drudgery
My Tales of tinsel
Become Conspicuous Coincidences
Filled with Dingle berries
That are Perfectly Imperfect
Mrs. Claus Dances With Elves
As she is Swayed and seduced
She realizes that Oranges aren’t apples
Speckled candy waits in Variegated vessels
Chestnuts and chisels have been Stripped and polished
Dreidels and ladles are used
For Maneuvering the muck

I can hardly believe it’s December! Where did November go? Hmmm…. that could make a good poem. Don’t you think? Perhaps that’ll be what I write about today. I never know where my ideas will come from, and I’m sure most of you don’t either.
It was incredible to see such a great response this month from all of you. I made it my job to not attempt a single one of these prompts, and chose instead to work on some other projects that I needed to get finished. Mainly my book! Which is coming together quite nicely and will hopefully be ready to publish in the coming months.
Congratulations to Dorinda and Michael, you were the top two participants this month, having been the only ones to complete every prompt. That is unless I missed a few links, Tessa was certainly very close as well. I had a bit of a hard time keeping track, as some of you weren’t linking the posts correctly. So this month, if you’d like to participate, please have the link on your post go directly to the prompts page. If it just goes to my main page, I won’t receive notice of it. Michael and Grant, I’m speaking to both of you! Lol… 😉
Really hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I’m looking forward to Christmas myself, and all the wonderful things that come along with that. I get to see all of my girls here for Christmas this year and I couldn’t ask for a better present. If you haven’t been to the December prompts page, here’s the link. Hope you all have a really great month of writing! ~M xo
