Wednesday Poetry Prompts: 612
For today's prompt, write an open poem. The poem could be about an open door or window. It could cover a tennis or golf open. Be about a diner that's open late at night or an open-ended question. This week's prompt is definitely open to interpretation.
Remember: These prompts are springboards to creativity. Use them to expand your possibilities, not limit them.

Here’s my attempt at an Open Poem:
“leave the door open,” by Robert Lee Brewer
leave the door open
at your own risk
because an open door
lets in the weather
& the elements & all
earth's little creatures
searching for a place
to just exist
