2021 April PAD Challenge Countdown: T-minus 1

Let's poem today and poem in April!

For today’s prompt, write a warm up poem. The warm up could be related to sports, like warming up before a baseball game or track race. Or it could be about a computer warming up, the weather warming up, or even a relationship warming up. I hope everyone is warmed up for some major poeming in April!

Remember: These prompts are springboards to creativity. Use them to expand your possibilities, not limit them.

Here’s my attempt at a Warm Up Poem:

"mic check"

poetry one - poetry two
poetry stayed longer than you
inside my heart hidden away
you always leave - poetry stays
