I spent April writing a poem a day based on the prompts at Poetic Asides. A while back, Mr. So-Cal made the comment that I always say I'm going to write X amount, and then a few days later I say that I didn't or I haven't yet (he's right, by the way).
But in April, I did it, and some of those draft poems might be worth revisiting (and some I've already posted in draft form here). In the meantime, these are my titles from the past month:
1. First House, on First Ave.
2. Icarus's Mother
3. (a haiku, but it was about plumeria)
4. Briefly (okay, that's a pretty short title)
5. Her Usual (a Woman Who Is Afraid of Everything poem)
6. A Day of Resting
7. After Dinner
8. If I Must Paint You a Picture
9. When the Whistle Blows
10. Up on Kail Road
11. Spoon
12. Always
13. Water Also Flows Downhill
14. How the Mother Behaves (this title was required by the prompt)
15. Taxing, 1985
16. Tenderly
17. Sunday Visit
18. Schism
19. In the '60s
20. After the Whole Day
21. Dealer's Choice
22. Where Is the Nature
23. Crockery
24. Yellowstone, Already Years Ago
25. The Job I Could Not Keep
26. I Am So Over Dinner (another title required by the prompt)
27. Time to Hit the Ground Growing
28. At the End of a Winter and a Day
29. Trying to Keep Up
30. Not Such an End
I've learned quite a bit, including the insight that I need to work a little harder on my titles!
Happy May!
