Flame On


Match me
Catch me
Strike that
Tender tinder
And with hot
Breath grow
That flame
Never, ever
Blow it
Out


Do you know what today is? It's the first day of the Poem A Day challenge at Poetic Asides, with our master of poetry and prompts Robert (not Bob) Brewer! The man who got me writing poems again with his first April Poem A Day challenge, five (yes, that's five) years ago. Stop in for some great poetry reads or join the fun at http://www.writersdigest.com/editor-blogs/poetic-asides Today's prompt is “Matches” from the lovely Mariya Koleva!!

  3. Happy PAD, Sara. I won't be participating, but I will probably still try to post one a day... your take on the match, sexy and such fun! A bit of naughty is good for the soul... and I am SO GLAD to be home after our 12-day excursion! Had to pop over, thanks for commenting! Peace, Amy

  5. Dare I say.... >> Hot << Said it anyway :)
    I didn't mind your rant at all. I'm the same as you, but, like any mother protecting their young, hurt mine and... Yikes. lol
    Glad you and Margaret shared some great horse gossip too :)
