NaPoWriMo, Day 6 – I hope this small collection will be well-liked 🙂
1. Haiku Heights – Hope
Hope dawns with each day
Skies redden and glow with it –
Sunrise and sunset.
2. NaPoWriMo.net – Animal
A mother cat will
look upon her litter as
Tigers in waiting.
3. Being Poetry – Sweat
Do you remember that winter?
You left the windows open
And yet you sweated.
Do you recall now
That warmth within
Which made you sweat?
Or do you sweat now
only for the awkwardness
of a silly situation
I put you in
with
these
very
words
of
mine?
4. Poetic Asides – Hiding
Conceal those tears
And make me believe
There is nothing but joy.
And make me believe
We are overly happy
To be here and now.
There is nothing but joy –
“As is” clause
fully operational
In hiding.

So many poetry prompt sites so little time…
I have enjoyed your haiku and other verse.
Thank you for stopping by my site 🙂
I do have longer verse…but they are at the link on my site: Julesgemsandstuff. …a break from poetic ventures… not I…well not yet anyway. Have a great day.
Jules – thanks a lot for your visit! You are right, with so much poeming to do and poems to read, it is a busy month!
I had a break in my preparations an because of your comment I was inspired to write:

Enjoy!
You are very, very good at these haiku poems. I find them quite difficult, but you’re acing them! Happy Easter, Mariya!
I like the sunrise and sunset ~
Wow, you have written up a storm to a wide variety of prompts. I commend you for this. You are participating in NaPoWriMo to the max.
I can’t believe you are doing ALL of these challenge. I am so impressed. I’m found of the Hiku.
The “as is” clause is indeed in hiding, Mariya.
I like them all, but number three is my favorite. As for the kittens, thanks for dropping them in, it’s been so long since there have been kittens in my life.
Sometimes that daily dawning hope is hard to find…
Tell Me, Sister Crow
A very picturesque haiku! I love it! Especially “skies redden”!!!
Thanks to:
Misky – Happy Easter to you, too. (Ours is next week ;-)) I’m glad you like my haikus.
Grace – I like sunset and sunrise, too, as a cute way to describe the circle of life 🙂
Mary – I’m flattered. In fact, there are some more promptsites, yet I feel 4 or 5 is enough 😀
Rachel – thanks! In November, I usually do NaNoWriMo along with Poetic Asides’ NovPAD, so I feel a Poetry Month should have plenty of all – challenges, prompts, poems.
Irene – that’s very true 😀
brenda – I’m glad you enjoyed nu. 3 🙂 I love kittens, too.
MMTeacher – exactly my opinion. In fact, sometimes I try to write encouraging, just to push back the feeling of despair.
Diana – I’m glad you liked it!
Mariya, I loved the surprise ending in “Animal.” Motherhood isn’t all smiles and bubbles, is it?
Cate – glad you enjoyed it! I agree with you on motherhood 🙂
I so love the idea of the mother cat thinking of her kittens as tigers in waiting! I wanted to let you know I have added your site to the blogroll at Poets United. I am sorry for the delay. Thanks for joining and I look forward to reading more of your work on site……
Sherry – thanks for your visit! I’m very happy I’m part of the Poets United crowd 🙂
