Welcome to my monthly blog feature, Prompt Me, where I read a new poem I’ve written inspired by a prompt offered by one of you, my wonderful blog followers! And to say thank you for tuning in, I send a special gift to the person whose prompt inspired my poem.
This month’s prompt “she glides on unseen waters” was offered by Sherry Green. Thank you, Sherry! I’ll be sending a thank you gift along soon. My poem is called “The Solitude of Grief.”
Lana, You tap into something so magnificent with your work. I love the metaphor of the space where those who grieve dwell and the hope of the moonlight coming in through the opening cracks. Beautiful work. Thank you.
Thank you, Sherry, for the inspiration.
Your poem spoke deeply to me on several planes. We are all honored by you for sharing such great work.
My suggested prompt: Fading flower blossoms in the rain.
Thank you, Neal. Your postcards have been powerful for me. I so appreciate them.
