Hey J, this looks like it will be an interesting NaPo series. I like the idea of the seasons going through life phases.

Somehow your book didn't end up in the contest though. So you might want to check with Helen or Tom to figure out how to transfer this.

Also one small typo here:

My ojective (objective) is to write about

Wishing you a happy April of poetry.

Gloria

cool. I am setting up my book today as well. last year I wrote about 400 poems in APril, this year I will probably write about 100 only doing one or two prompts per day plus my usual two or three poems per day.

The words flow and connect well. I like the topics the author chose
to write on. Writing about change is unique and thought provoking.
Thank you for the author's notes - it certainly sounds like a challenging
project and interesting way to write the poems. The artwork is awesome!

Mary, thanks for the acknowledgement of the task.

I don't write poetry, but even the thought of writing thirty short stories, 75-150 words daily for thirty days, sounds like a real challenge. I applaud you for the undertaking, and I will drop in daily to read and encourage.
Good luck...
John

I applaud your noble ambition. I've started several Aprils with grandiose ideas of writing a poem a day, and somehow I've failed every time! I ga along pretty well for about seven days--then try to play catch-up! (You need in 'experience' after the 'p.') I like the areas you have chosen.
