For today s prompt, write a thought poem. Of course, my first thought (maybe like yours) is, Aren t all poems thought poems? Well, I guess, but I m thinking of a poem that captures a thought or random ramblings running round your cranium. It doesn t have to be a rambling poem, but that s one thing. Another possibility is having two people share their thoughts with each other and/or NOT share them. Think about it a moment and then unleash your thought poem.

For today s prompt, write a question poem. There are a few different ways to come at this one. First, make the title of your poem a question and use the poem to answer it. Or make the title the answer and the poem the question. Or end your poem on a question.

Once we get through today s poem, we ll have exactly a week of poeming left. Let s make it the best (most fun) week of the month!
For today s prompt, write an appointment poem. My first thoughts with appointments conjure up visions of doctors, dentists, and parent-teacher conferences. But there are also business meetings and romantic dates. For the most part, people are very appointment-centric, because it gives people a reason and opportunity to come together (kind of like my annual appointment to poem daily on this site).
