Prompt: Zombie apocalypse. Ugh. Zombies, nah. The Zombies, yeah.

An ascending poem. (Still catching up on poem-a-day)

#PoemADay #CatchUp #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day25

Embarrassment with prescribed rhyme

#PoemADay #CatchUp #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day22

Still catching up. This time they asked for “something funny.” I don’t know if it nails the brief but I tried.

#PoemADay #CatchUp #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day19

An ode to food. And the perfect example of “it doesn’t mean a GOOD poem a day!”

#PoemADay #CatchUp #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day24

Hearts. A bland little prompt but I hope the poem has something okay in it.

#PoemADay #CatchUp #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day23

You’re an extra in a movie…

This prompt was about unpopular opinions. Where do I start? Avocados!

#PoemADay #CatchUp #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day18

Didn’t quite catch up on Poem-a-Day. Instead I got further behind this week. Still I shall soldier on. Here’s my poem about “Kings”.

Still behind, but getting there. Responding to “aiming high”

#AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day17

Poem-a-day goes off the rails to easily when life happens. So I am spending my Easter Sunday quietly catching up.

This prompt was Pass a Crazy Law.

Caught up! Poem-a-day is back on schedule. Today - Queens.

#PoemADay #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day14

Still a day behind on poem-a-day. This one was sparked by “you’ve done something terrible…”

#PoemADay #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day13

This is yesterday’s poem-a-day that I wrote, but failed to post. Simple prompt - your name!

#PoemADay #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day12

Today I attempt the old genie with the three wishes chestnut.

Out

His name was the first spooky thing – Roger.
I was listening to my favourite band – Wilco.
And the day we met? 10/4.
I know right?

Today, the challenge was to use “the language of yesteryear”. I chose to rewrite an Australian classic.

#AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day9

You know what you usually do? Yeah, don’t do that. Paraphrasing, but basically that was today’s prompt. Apologies in advance.

#PoemADay #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day8

Chaos - a simple one word prompt.

#PoemADay #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day7

Write about someone you admire, they said. So many choices. I settled on this incredible woman.

Today’s prompt didn’t lead me to a poem as such. “Write a letter to your inner child” - so I did just that.

#PoemADay #AdelaidePoetry #Poetry #PoetryPrompt #InternationalPoetryMonth #InternationalMonthOfPoetry #PamThePoet #PamMakin #IMP2025 #Day5

I blinked, and
it was Spring

flora flourishing
fauna frolicking
flap of wing as
songbirds sing
