April is National Poetry Month. Writer’s Digest is hosting a poem-a-day challenge. You can go to their website each day, get a new prompt, see an example, and post and share your work with other poets. It’s really cool. Follow the link below.
Today’s prompt: Write a catch up poem. This is not to be confused with a ketchup (or catsup) poem, but hey, write one of those if the poetic spirit moves you! But I’m thinking of catching up on work, catching up in a race, or catching up on some popular TV or streaming series.
Here’s my attempt:
“All Caught Up’
I’m all caught up
On being left behind.
No need to fast-forward
When I want to press rewind.
Memories like gingersnaps
Spicy-sweet and hard
Focus on the future
And read my Tarot card.
