✍️💞NaPoWriMo 2024 – April’s write a poem a day💞✍️ Day 13💞✍️13/04/24

#NaPoWriMo

Finally, our optional prompt for the day asks you to play with rhyme. Start by creating a “word bank” of ten simple words. They should only have one or two syllables apiece. Five should correspond to each of the five senses (i.e., one word that is a thing you can see, one word that is a type of sound, one word that is a thing you can taste, etc). Three more should be concrete nouns of whatever character you choose (i.e., “bridge,” “sun,” “airplane,” “cat”), and the last two should be verbs. Now, come up with rhymes for each of your ten words. (If you’re having trouble coming up with rhymes, the wonderful Rhymezone is at your service). Use your expanded word-bank, with rhymes, as the seeds for your poem. Your effort doesn’t actually have to rhyme in the sense of having each line end with a rhymed word, but try to use as much soundplay in your poem as possible.

Happy writing!

☆☆This was not easy, writing a poem from random words, it took me a few attempts to finish with all the words rhymed. Thank goodness for Rhymezone!☆☆

LOVES AND DESIRES

Fae day desires, the fires of night flight,
Night flight loves fae day!

They love the sky above at night,
In the galaxy, starlight so bright.

The smell of a rose on her clothes,
Tickles her nose, she loves prose

He loves the sky-high price of wine,
He desires to enshrine the divine.

She desires that she can tell
Each toll of the bell, each knell.

He loves her hand in his hand,
She would love to understand.

Meanwhile the cat loves to chitchat
They need to work at - a format.

Cliche Day loves Knight night,
Knight night fires the desires of cliche day!
