PAD April 2026, Day 24 Unidentified

I missed two days during April's Poem-a-Day challenge. Here's a make up for one of them. The prompt asked for a poem dealing with the unidentified. Having recently read "Missing You" by Shu Ting, one of the foremost Misty Poets, I decided to try to bring that aesthetic to this poem. From the Mystic A blip in the skyThat draws your eye to a shooting star;...

PAD April 2026 Day 30: Harvest

Yesterday, I wrote my PAD poem, but I never had a chance to post it. Here it is now. Daily Harvest "Let us not become wearing in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up" (NIV, Galatians 6:9) Listening to my students discuss and debateIs like watching my garden grow:...

Pocket Surprise You reach into your pocket and findA well-worn, folded up piece of paper:A memento of an earlier time,A note scrawled by tiny hands, sayingi luv yuIn messy, five-year-old writing.You smile, and thenFold it carefully and put itIn a different pocketTo be discovered again another day.

April 2026 PAD: Love/Anti-Love

My love goes awayNot in anger or loss;He's visiting his brother,But, the cats do not know that.In our estimation, their livesHave been short. We wishThey were with us longer,But in their lifespan, their livesBefore us,Have been twenty or thirty percentOf their lives,Percentages of neglect or abuse. We give them love,...

PAD April 27 and 28: Fan

Yesterday, I had a (I think) great idea for a fan poem, but I didn't get to post it. I used first lines of books I love that fly my fan flag! Last Night I Dreamt I Went to Manderley Again It was the best of times,When they were togetherStrolling in the sun, soaking upThe warmth of each other's ray…...

Today we were tasked with taking a poem we wrote earlier this month and remix it. So, I went to day 4 and tried my hand at a villanelle with the same material. Here's my attempt.

Drowning In the unknown sea of unprecedented daysWe banded together to build a boat,A life raft of sorts of sharing our ways. Computer screens became our getawaysAs our hangouts switched to fully r…

PAD April 2026 Day 23: Juxtaposition

To Be Human I call up Shakespeare on YouTubeClassic lit meets Modern TechBoth born on the same day, today,Five hundred and forty-one years apart.Shall I compare thee to an uploaded video?Thou art more lasting and more complete.And yet, because of Karim's platform,We see Shakespeare's works performedIn days gone by, filmed for all to see again, to…...

PAD April 2026 Day 21: Nature

Nature's Gift Tiny shoots of oreganoAre peeking up through the Dead leaves of last autumn and theDetritus of last summer's growth,Growth that has lain dormant for many months. Soon enough, the green shoots willGrow into sprigs of peppery freshness toErase the harsh memory of a long,Winter of drab grayness, andWe'll forget how cold it was and Bask in the warmth of Nature's gift.

PAD April 2026 Day 21: High/Low

Going High Searching for hope,We look far and wide,Turning the place inside out, and Leaving no stone unturned, But we find noneAmong the muck and detritus of the world.We scrape off the grime, andTry to sweep up the spilth, butMore and more mess materializes.These low places leave little room forDreams, for promise, for us;...
