National Poetry Writing Month: Day #29 (April 29, 2014)
Today’s prompt is a really long one from NaPoWriMo.net; I shall condense it thusly:
Jim Simmerman’s ‘Twenty Little Poetry Projects’.

Plundering the Archives #9
Dear Monday…
Dear Monday,
You’re making it awfully difficult to stay home today. I’m hoping you can convince my cold to leave that much more quickly…
Love,

National Poetry Writing Month: Day #28 (April 28, 2014)
Today’s prompt is from NaPoWriMo.net:
…find a news article, and […] write a poem using (mostly, if not only) words from the article.
National Poetry Writing Month: Day #27 (April 27, 2014)
Today’s entry was a tricky one. I had all sorts of trouble coming up with something I even halfway liked.
In the end, I went with the original prompt from NaPoWriMo.net:
…a poem written from a photograph.
Dear Sunday…
Dear Sunday,
This is probably the one day out of the year when I could successfully pull off a Barry White or Leonard Cohen impression. That almost makes up for all the sneezing…
Love,

National Poetry Writing Month: Day #26 (April 26, 2014)
Today’s entry inadvertently combines prompts from PoeWar:
Write a poem about a natural event.
[W]rite a water poem.
and NaPoWriMo.net:
…give the curtal sonnet a whirl.
Earlier, the prompt explains:
…the curtal sonnet is shorter than the normal, fourteen-line sonnet. Instead, it has a first stanza of six lines, followed by a second stanza of four, and then closes with a half-line.
