I’ve been quiet this past month. The last poem I spent any amount of time on was my anniversary limerick. Over at Writer’s Digest, Robert Lee Brewer posted the last Wednesday Poetry prompt until December, because Saturday is already November 1st! Throughout November Brewer will be posting daily prompts for a chapbook contest. One of my goals this year was to compile a chapbook. I worked on one in the summer. It didn’t get any bites. I am going to give November an effort. Today’s prompt was emerge. On twitter the #haikuchallenge word today is unleash and with Halloween two days away –
Every Halloween
Parents unleash their children
Candy fiends emerge
Then I decided to try to work on an acrostic.
Every Halloween
Monsters and goblins roam streets
Entreating neighbors
Ring doorbells before
Grabbing candy happy to
Exclaim, Trick or Treat!
Happy Halloween!
