The Rebel in Me

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I really like those Writers Cramp contest prompts on Writing.com...this is the second day I checked their prompt and the second time a poem came to me so it is good inspiration while doing a poem a day for National Poetry Month. They just have a contest there and yesterday  I am sure I did not enter correctly but today pretty sure I did but I won't remember how to do it tomorrow...they have such a weird complicated system that will take awhile to figure out and get used to I guess...maybe I will just use it for the prompts and heck with their contest entry...so this one is done a day early again #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021 #Day23

Cadence

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I don't really think I am a witch but I found it interesting the way their spells rhymed and the cadence they had just like poetry. Well they are poetry really. Rhyming lines with cadence... I do think poetry is magical though. Different people read it and read into it different things. That is pretty magical. Like everybody gets their own message from it whatever makes sense to them. It's pretty cool. #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021 #Day21

Multitasking

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This came to me while listening to an online health summit and reading an ebook at the same time...how can you possibly get anything out of either doing both at the same time? I often listen to summits while doing other stuff online and wonder how much of that info is actually absorbed. It would be nice to at least try to do one thing at a time and really be in the moment and enjoy whatever it is I am doing rather than all this multitasking that most seem to do these days...a lot less stressful too. I am gonna attempt it and see what happens. It won't be easy. Old habits die hard... #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021 #Day20

Censorship

Author's Notes/Comments: 

just some food for thought today...#NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021 #Day19

Do You

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was looking through Writers.com poetry prompts for this month and came across writing a poem about change so this is my take on that prompt... #NationalPoetryMonth, #NaPoMo, #PoemADay, #April2021, #Day18

I for one am not particularly crazy about change. I like to feel comfortable in familiar surroundings...but life is all about change...things change everyday...just gotta go with the flow you know...the only thing constant in life is change...I know I wrote a poem about that once...ha ha

No Matter What

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Inspired by being misunderstood the other day. Poetry is a good way to get some feelings out instead of keeping them bottled up inside. We all go through this kinda stuff. Sometimes it can be rough... NaPoMo, NationalPoetryMonth, PoemADay, April2021, Day17

MISUNDERSTOOD

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This was inspired by a tweet that was twisted by some idiot and had a bunch of other idiots reading into that...crazy stuff...had to mute the conversation. I debated about deleting my original tweet but then thought I would rather leave it as is so maybe somebody might actually read what I said and realize it wasn't me but some twisted idiot that misquoted me. I can't imagine what it is like for celebrities constantly being attacked by stupid stuff like that. I guess you just have to tune it out.I am sure everyone is misunderstood at some point and it's no fun.  At least it inspired a poem I guess. Ended up deleting and blocking. Frustrating stuff but inspired this poem and one more for tomorrow so far...so some good came out of it. #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #April2021 #PoemADay #Day 16 about six hours early but who's counting?
