April 9, 2014
Prompt: Write a shelter poem.

The rain is sudden
Haven of canopy trees
Nature’s umbrella

Inspiration: The prompt reminded me of a day in London when I took shelter under some large trees to escape a sudden rain shower, (What Londoners Do When It Rains).

April 10, 2014
Prompt: Write a future poem.

Seconds unticked,
moments unlived
Fluid clockwork,
persuades the Fates

Forward motion,
belies the present
Always seeking,
never breathing

Still the voices,
lure the silence
Time unspent,
hours undone

Inspiration: I don’t know. This came straight from the muse’s mouth.

Happy poeming!
