NaPoWriMo Day Five, Substack Version
Prompt:Today we’d like you to start by taking a look at Alicia Ostriker’s poem, “The Blessing of the Old Woman, the Tulip, and the Dog” poetryfoundation.org/poems/53677/the-bl… Now try your hand at writing your own poem about how a pair or trio very different things would perceive of a blessing or, alternatively, how these very different things would think of something else (luck, grief, happiness, etc).
And remember, if it works for you, come back here to this Note to share your poem, your process, your thoughts. Or a link taking us there.
Happy Writing, Everyone!
