April is a month for poetry writing. Thirty poems in 30 days. At least, that is. I stick to Haiku Heights. They make the A-Z challenge, every day the prompt starting with another letter of the alphabet. In case you are wondering how they go about the several extra days that have no letters, here is their trick: every Sunday is an Open Day, so you may take a rest from ABC. I also follow Poetic Asides, where I first met the so-called PAD (short for Poem-A-Day) Challenge.
1. Haiku Heights #02 – Butterfly:
they wait, looking up
picking colours from sunshine
flutter fragile wings
2. Poetic Asides – Dark Poem:
Up the alley
I crawl
Dimmed
And dulled
To dumb sobriety
Yet drunk on
a monstrous lack of relation to
Reality.
