Prompt #01: No Narrative

Oops I skipped #1

Stop to smell the roses
as the roses die
Stop to view the sunset
as the sun begins to rise
Stop to hear the sirens
as they sound to fade
Distruction, corruption, disgusting
Not enough time with you




Today’s prompt, to kick off our 30 days of poetry writing, is brought to us by poet Sage Cohen.
***
Reveal Something Without a Narrative
My invitation today is to say something without actually saying it. To reveal something through a series of images, rhythms, and sounds that give us more of an experience of, or a feeling about, what happened rather than the actual facts, events and story line. The following questions are designed to help you get loose and wander into a scene or two in which you might want to include your reader.
