Wednesday Poetry Prompts: 330
Here we are again: On a Wednesday in a month not named April or November. Must be poeming time!
For today's prompt, write a shopping poem. I've been doing a lot of the "traditional" shopping lately with a bunch of big family dinners and such, but remember: People shop for husbands, shop for good music, shop for people with similar interests, and so on. Happy shopping for a good poem!

Re-create Your Poetry!
Revision doesn’t have to be a chore–something that should be done after the excitement of composing the first draft. Rather, it’s an extension of the creation process!
In the 48-minute tutorial video Re-creating Poetry: How to Revise Poems, poets will be inspired with several ways to re-create their poems with the help of seven revision filters that they can turn to again and again.
