Flat boring paper
The snowfall of my mind smiles
Possibilities
Prompts in the forecast
The snowfall of minds gather
Blizzard of poems
Tuesday was a busy day! At the Go Dog Go Cafe Tuesday Writing Prompt, Devereaux and Beth requested poems that used the phrase “snowfall of my mind”. While I did change it a bit for the second poem, I hope my offerings are accepted for this week.
Over at dVerse – Poetics, Gina reminded us about the magic in ordinary things. I chose paper and prompts as my ordinary things. As a poet, I use paper and write about prompts weekly. One day of contemplating these ordinary things lead to these appreciative haikus.
In this busy season, I hope you all can take some time to appreciate the ordinary – isn’t this what the season is all about anyway?
Wonderful haikus Irma…

you are so marvelous to see the possibility on a blank piece of paper and create your magic. a very cerebral haiku if there is such a term, it urges the reader to explore the recesses of the mind, a double dose of magic Irma – so loved this!!! you know what’s magical here? your thinking and your attitude, I am so proud to know you and call you friend.

I like how you compare inspiration for poetry to a snowstorm. Sometimes it can feel that way. My favorite line is, “Prompts in the forecast.”
