I finally decided what I’m going to write about and, if you’re a writer or just like to read what I write, I think you’ll enjoy it. I’ve decided to attempt writing one poem a day, every day, starting TODAY. My poems may be painful to read at times because I’m a horrible poet usually, but that’s what this is about: a journey to improve a skill I normally avoid. Feel free to join in on your own–it’s going to be a fun ride, whatever the outcome! So, here’s today’s poem:
The Idea of a Journey
One foot out the door
One foot inside
This idea on my mind
Could be the death of me
It’s a scary thought
This journey of mine
But I refuse
To be left behind
Take a step
Take a breath
Pack your bags
With supplies and courage
No matter where we go
We’re going to need it
And there you go–one disasterous poem off the top of my head. Can’t wait to see what will inspire me tomorrow! (And, hopefully, produce a better poem!)
