Day 18, NaPoWriMo 2019

The 30/30 Poetry Facebook prompt was “street signs.”

Signs of spring

All along the street, signs pop up
brilliant as flowers, unexpected
as mushrooms: new-leaf green
Roofing by Sta-Dri, Vote for So-and-so
in variegated red-white-blue, apple red
We Support Teachers, Pesticide
Application Keep Off in crime-scene yellow.

  1. I love it, Jennifer; how clever to make the sign colors like the colors of the spring flowers! Nice photo too.

    • Thanks, Carla! It was a fun poem to write. And it occurred to me that I could make good use of all those pictures I’m always taking with my phone of flowers and stuff. I’m a little slow, but I keep moving down the road. 😉
