Poet, I am not, but I take heart in knowing that the only path leads upwards as far as my knowledge and appreciation of verse and all its forms. I promised in this blog that I would push myself out of my comfort zone. Well, writing poetry for a ten day challenge is out of my zone and into outer space. So here goes.
Day One of the Intro to Poetry WordPress challenge.
Prompt: Water
Form: Haiku
Once wild pristine stream.
Mine tunnels. Sandstone bed cracks
Toxic soup stagnates.

That would be great if you did! I’ve really branched out from short stories to trying new things like poetry and photography and I’m really enjoying the process.
