This week's prompt: Make the topic of your poem a verb
Often when thinking of topics to write about we think of nouns--the names of things, people, places, concepts. So this week, go with a verb.
A verb is a word used to describe an action, state or occurrence: sees, runs, becomes, happens. It is a necessary part of a complete sentence and can even be a sentence all by itself.
 |
| Sing, play, strum, listen |
I think it would be fun for you to pick your own verbs, but if you prefer a suggestion, here are a few to choose from: explode, condense, relinquish, carry, wrap, run, is. There are some others under the photos.
Post your efforts below with Mr. Linky. And please visit the blogs and posted poems by our other participants as we all like to have our work read and any comment is usually appreciated.

ReplyDeleteI loved this prompt. Thanks, Peggy.
ReplyDeleteI am so happy my prompt post seemed to get up here when I scheduled it and had Mr. Linky and all the photos! And also very happy to see you all here and posting! Thanks to you all.
ReplyDeleteThe verb "emote" was a natural, especially when combined with this week's prompt from Three Word Wednesday. Thanks! To Emote, Or Not To Emote — That Is The Question (Limerick)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this post, Peggy. I think you will smile at mine.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great idea, Peggy! I just thought of my favorite verb and wrote a poem on the train. I will post it later when I get home tonight! Thanks! I love Poetry Jam and jamming with you all :)
ReplyDeleteOK, my post is up! I will visit everyone in the next couple of days. Good night for now ... :)
ReplyDeleteThis was a great idea for a prompt. It certainly made us think Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI have shared two short poems I wrote on 'revelling.' They were inspired by experiences I had on German trains last week. I just returned home Tuesday night.
ReplyDeleteMy verb is Ripple ... Very interesting prompt Peggy. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteLove this prompt, my muse is just a bit slow once again with all the computer issues and remodeling and general chaos going on. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else has come up with!
ReplyDeleteDear friend,
ReplyDeleteSounds very interesting. I am sure everyone will have FUN with this.....including you (smile).
I really appreciated this prompt. I had just read a disturbing article which immediately inspired my poem. It took me awhile to write it and I still want to work on it, but I'll have to put it aside for awhile. Thank you for this site and for this safe place to share.
ReplyDeleteSorry... I linked to the wrong prompt! My bad! Let me try this again.
