2025 November PAD Chapbook Challenge: Day 2
For the 2025 November PAD Chapbook Challenge, poets write a poem a day in the month of November. Day 2 is to write a fun poem.
Wow! Great start to the month yesterday, but this is a daily poetry challenge...so let's keep it going.
For today’s prompt, write a fun poem. There are several ways to come at this one. For instance, write about something you have fun doing, whether that's a sport, hobby, or whatever. Or write about something others have fun doing that maybe you don't understand. However you do it, be sure to have fun with this one.
Remember: These prompts are springboards to creativity. Use them to expand your possibilities, not limit them.

Here’s my attempt at a Fun Poem:
“Fun-sized”
They call them all fun size,
but there are just so many
that I think I bit off a bit
more than I should chew.
