Do you love poetry? It is something different to everyone but above all, it is expression.

Here is a challenge to keep you writing, to take you on a poetic journey and to keep your engagement with poetry alive

The challenge

Every week, write five poems (in any 5 days). I will share a theme on Mondays/Tuesdays, beginning with poetic styles/forms. With time, we will explore more poetic avenues.

Rules of engagement

• To participate, write at least one poem every day for five days of a week.

• Work your poem around the week’s theme.

• Ping only one piece a day for the five days to that week’s challenge (I will share a prompt every week, with the theme).

• Poetic styles have formatting recommendations. Since this is not a contest, it is okay to (reasonably) bend the rules.

• Attach the photo below somewhere in your post to identify with the challenge.

• Remember to indicate the week’s theme somewhere in your piece.

That is all for now. I will pin this post to the top of my blog. Whenever you will need to refer, just check here.

I will also update this post, should need be and I will be sure to notify you of significant changes.

The first challenge will go up tomorrow, Nov. 16^th. Dawn To Twilight Trio Challenge will also pick up tomorrow. See you then!
