4Tomorrow's NPD Poem I'm playing with FAQ. It's not that never start with a plan but often I just take my pen for a walk or start scribbling down random words. Some of my best poems start that way. Of course I often spend hours, days or years polishing. So I try&explain my brain

Tomorrow's poem for National Poetry Day 2025, theme 'Play', is from a lovely book edited by Roger Stevens, Attie Lime & Trevor Millum. It's a fun to have a go at writing a poem where all the words begin with the same letter. I cheated a bit using contractions. Important to choose the right letter

NPD 02.10.2025 Today's not been the best so an old poem, but it fits so well. Clair de Lune roughly translated from the French is moonlight or the light of the moon and has inspired poetry & music but it could also be a name.

Today's poem in preparation for #NationalPoetryDay 02.10.2025 (theme PLAY) long ago, poet Roger Stevens, let me shadow him. Roger's so kind & has helped many young poets & I've learnt a lot from him. So 'after Roger Stevens' but also with apologies as I can't recall the title...

So here's today's offering for #NationalPoetryDay which this year is Thursday 2nd of October and the chosen subject is "PLAY" Here's a few helpful guidelines. Perhaps you could write your own. The sillier the better.

The most recent especially upsetting round of supposedly Britishness has reminded me of this poem of mine from She's Fierce Macmillan. We are all from everywhere and richer for it.

It's not that I especially want to chat or definitely not access adult content, terrified at the very thought but I really don't know what it is bs want me to do to prove I'm old enough. Any ideas? Pretty sure at least once it wanted a credit card. I dont have or want. Also worrying.
