NaPoWriMo: 30 NEW Writing Prompts for National Poetry Month 2011

13. Run around your house and grab 5 items that all begin with the same letter. Write a poem as an ode to one of these items or that includes these items.
We will do ours in a English ode with the rhyme scheme of ABABCDECDE.
Our items are... GUM, GREETING CARDS, GUITAR, GLUE, GLITTER

OURS IS...

ODE TO MY GUITAR

There you are waiting once again
for a strum or a pluck to hum
like a greeting card from a faraway friend
or a discarded piece of chewing gum

Your cords rain glitter in my mind
and glue all thoughts together
bringing sweet peace to my soul
more time with you I'd like to find
our harmony ringing true forever
to play you guitar, is my goal


Ok so I'm not quite awake just yet LOL
YOUR TURN
ENJOY

  1. You beat all I've ever seen. I have to admit it I can't come up with them like you. I have to think on mine and sometimes it gets me in trouble. I think to much and never get one done.
