April is Poetry Month



Necessity

If I’m hiding
search for me
in a spider’s dream
or web of twilight.
You might find me
in shadows gone
ladybug on a lemony
sway of eucalyptus.
Consider me in
the moon’s crackle
above the pines.
I’m there just before
stars prickle dusk
with the promise
of what we
most need.
                  - Penny Wilkes

Flavor your writing with sensory word choices this month.


Fill sentences with imagery. Take a raw experience and shape words into a rhythm.


Explore a mystery. Bring in wild joy and ache of sorrow. Dab in confusion and magic.
