Want to participate?
Every Saturday evening, we'll post a prompt here. Then you post a poem on your blog. Then Thursday morning, come back here and find the Thursday post. Leave the PERMALINK (that is, the link to just that post, not the link to your blog itself) in the Linky widget.
Remember, prompts are Totally Optional-- if this week's prompt doesn't turn your crank, then feel free to post something else entirely.
