ideas condensed in rhythm's flowing craft.
Each day I hope to post a sonnet, fresh,
or else a classic sonnet from the past.
I fear that fear of form intimidates
the fledgling sonneteer. Don't be deterred!
The courage comes to cleverly create,
when commandeering others' willing words.
Whatever poem posted here is free
for you to imitate, adapt, or take;
whatever line or stanza you may see
is open, let it leaven what you bake.
Improve, revise, or parody at will;
remix, repost, be playful with your skill!
I am going to have to practice a bit before I post anything here, but I think this is a brilliant blog idea. Thanks!
