NaPoWriMo: 25

N is for NaPoWriMo

I failed, I failed, but still I’m glad,
I’ve had the bits of fun I’ve had.

Next year I’ll make it, swear to god!
I’ll thrash myself, not spare the rod.

Next year in April, good as gold,
I’ll put my whole darn life on hold.

I’ll lock the kids inside a chest.
Ignore my novel. I won’t rest–

Until I’ve gotten down and dirty
Writing poems. All damn thirty.

(sigh)

    Thanks for all the poems you did share with us all month. It was much fun. :)

    So maybe you didn’t do one EVERY day, but it’s a bunch more than you’d have done otherwise. And I think you’re on to something with these alphabet poems–there’d be a publication market for a good new Animalia.
