I way overthought Thursday’s 30/30 Poetry Facebook group prompt: 10 things
Lists that Failed to Yield a Poem
board games found at a thrift store
plants blooming in the yard
products no longer available in stores
varieties of tea in the pantry
items from the bottom of a purse
Trivial Pursuit answers (and questions)
expired medications in the bathroom cabinet
unread books on the shelves
what I like about you
Ten is a larger number than it appears, and it is not
so easy to make a poem about ten things
as one would think.




What was the prompt? Is this a NAPOWRIMO prompt? I’ve been using a craft book for prompts instead, so I’m out of the loop. And tired. But your poem is giving me ideas!
Oh, I get it. The prompt was just “10 things.”
Yeah, sorry about that – I may have been a little vague. 😉 It was a *very* busy week. But I’m glad my lame poem gave you ideas! 🙂
