This is a prompting Blog

My intent here is to write a poem from the prompt I give to you , the reader, in hopes that it will inspire something and get others to write with me.

Todays Propmt is ACROSTIC poetry

An acrostic (Greek: ákros "top"; stíchos "verse") is a poem or other form of writing in which the first letter, syllable or word of each line, paragraph or other recurring feature in the text spells out a word or a message.

Today we will use the words NEW YEAR

New is the hope
Every one dreams of
When the year is young

Yet in a few months
Each new day brings
Another day to forget
Resolutions we made

ENJOY

    Todays Prompt is FINISH THIS LINE ...
    ( As the first light crept into the sky) Use it as it is AND as the first line of your write... OURS IS ...

    As the first light crept into the sky
    the smell of coffee drifts in my head
    I want to stay here, thats no lie
    I had to get my butt out of bed

    The smell of coffee drifts into my head
    and right to my comptuer I go
    I had to get my butt out of bed
    urgh, today I am waking up slow

    And right to my comptuer I go
    To catch up with all my friends
    Urgh today I'm waking up slow
    this is how my day begins

    To catch up with all my friends
    I want to stay here , thats no lie
    this is how my day begins
    As the first light crept into the sky



    This is a formed poem new to me but I tried it
    It is called a Pantoum poem, I will send the rules to whoever asks for them

    ENJOY
