I spent every day in April poeming with the wonderful wordsters on the Poetic Asides blog for the poem-a-day challenge. I miss it already. Luckily there’s a weekly Wednesday prompt that I hope to partake in, and post here when I can. Today’s was to write a “crafty” poem. Here’s what I made.
Crafting
at five she already knows
how buttons fixed and set
can petal and bloom.
the way a fuzzy pipe cleaner
bends to a strong green stem.
how a sprinkling of golden glitter
over a glob of glue mimics
sandy earth.
already feels the heart joy,
planting seeds of imagination.
