LESSON 46

Poetry happens when inspiration takes us to places, we have never been before.  Poetry happens when we have a sudden revelation or feel a certain exaltation.  Poetry happens when we can no longer contain all the feelings and emotions bubbling up inside of us.  Poetry happens, because as poets, to not write, is to not be.

Today’s lesson is intended to provide you with that moment of inspiration…  Please use all (or some – or one) of the prompts below to let poetry flow.  Or, let these words inspire you to find your own words and begin your own, self-inspired, poem.
