#NaPoWriMo 2023 Wrap-up

Champagne flutes from Buffalo State University

Good afternoon and welcome to May first. I made it through another #NaPoWriMo with a total of 34 poems written in April. Back in February, Buffalo State asked alumni to share their sweetheart stories for Valentine’s Day and they were going to give away some Buffalo State swag to a couple loving pairs. Well Shawn and I started dating in high school, but college was the first time we attended the same school, so I wrote up our story and submitted it. We were one of the lucky couples. The goodies arrived just before we drove up to Oregon. Yesterday I asked Shawn if we had any champagne. He wanted to know why I wanted to open a champagne bottle. I told him, I’m celebrating another successful April. Then I remembered we actually have champagne flutes now and I had a reason to use them.

I hope everyone enjoyed my poems for #NaPoWriMo this year. I hope to post more blog entries throughout the rest of the year. In November, the evil twin and I will be turning 50! so it’s a big year for me and I’d like to keep the creativity found in April going through the rest of the year. Until next time, thank you to all my readers who liked and commented on my poems. I appreciate your patronage.
