Apr 5 #AprPAD #NaPoWRiMo – Ariel, Pacific NW poet

Apr 5 #AprPAD #NaPoWRiMo

Day 5

My PAD prompt is … “words to use from a poem”

Today’s prompt consists of grabbing one of your favorite poems and making a list of your favorite words in that poem. Then take that list & write a poem using those lifted words. 🙂

I’m snagging “Jabberwocky” and using “brillig”, “gyre”, “gimble”, “mimsey” …

Other PAD challenges are …

Robert Lee Brewer’s Apr PAD challenge (Twitter, search #AprPAD.)
The official NaPoWriMo / GloPoWriMo Challenge. (Twitter, search #NaPoWriMo2018)

And what should I share on this Day 5? How about “Five Hours”?

I identify myself as a Pacific Northwest poet. I have been writing poetry since 1976- and yes - I have been using the pen-name Ariel all this time! I can often be found writing in the Willamette Valley, in Pacific forests or along the Coastlines on Oregon.
