National Poetry Month: April

National Poetry Month

April marks National Poetry Month. As a poet, I felt that I needed to contribute by writing a poem each week. My plan is to write one poem each week and post it on here. Poets, I challenge you to participate in poetry events this month by writing, reading, inspiring, tweeting, and continuing your progression in life with poetry in mind. Let us continue to show he world what poetry is all about.

Here's my first poem:



What’s In Your cup?

I taste smooth

Perfectly combined flavors

That dances with my taste buds

In a calm, yet minty way

The taste brings forth images

Of beautiful green pastures

Of lemongrass lawns

With hammocks dangling from invisible cords

I taste the sunshine

Lemony flavor

Mixed with spearmint

I taste Zen
