Poetry Practice: Word of the Day “Evergreen”

Poetry Practice: Pick a word for the day and write an impromptu poem. You can also create a list of words and write a poem for each. This practice is used to push the boundaries of a poem and force you to flex your writing skills.

For today, I have chosen the word “Evergreen”. Have a word suggestion for future poetry practices? Leave a comment below.


Tall, spiney

a twirl of ivy,

evergreen touching

frosted blue skies

a soft down of

snow below.

rain falls [poem #445]

rain falls,

slipping down

from heavens above

the dark clouds

pouring now

the tap tap tap

of rain on the window.
