365

2011 NaPoWriMo is coming to a close.  Poets everywhere have been working diligently all month to write a poem a day.  We've transformed our voices and transcribed our world.  Why should we put down our pens just because the month is ending?

My personal goal is to create a year of poems, each inspired by the daily news.  Your project might be different, but I'd love to have some company.

Wrestling with words can be lonely work.  I wake up every morning, drink a cup of tea, and scan the papers for inspiration to begin.   Writers write. 

My hope is to build on the excitement of NaPoWriMo, and to create a community of poets dedicated to writing every day.  Let's follow each other's blogs, and keep the poetry coming.
