Below is my first list of prompts for writing poetry. I think I got this written in a journal back in January. That was when I realized I was writing poetry wrong without rhyme, meter or rhythm. I don't rhyme anyway, but I didn't know that poetry had to have meter or rhythm even if it is free verse.
So, one day, I got one of those cheap grocery store notebooks and started writing all this down while my boyfriend was seeing the eye doctor. In the waiting room, I was pumping out words.
So for a few weeks, these pages had been torn out of the notebook and were messy and the written notes were also in a jumble. So, now I have finally typed them into here for my reference and for anyone else.
Feel free to borrow something and then to go off on your own wild horse. They will be here for me too to come back to.
And who knows what I might come up with for this.

Silent Whispers Life Well Lived So You Want to Build a Garden
Baby's Breath Leave the door open sheltered love Garden's Gate
Loss Her Zesty Orange Zest of Life Zest Poured Out Frozen Charlotte
My life played out She said she wouldn't wait for me Put on your coat Don't
Kept Kisses Empty Box Full Basket Nocturnal She Waits for You
Suddenly Sands of dreams Grains of Love Grains of time
Mother's Wrath A well kept mind So you dare to dream? Do With Me as you wish
Broken Doll Cracked Doll She broke the mirror the golden curl
Cherish Cheater Dare to float your own canoe You know it Set me free
Play telephone Queen of the Toilets Priority Swollen heart You know you will
Blue Blood Veins Yes, I love you Scalloped lace Lone Shell Scallop
In and out with the tide crashing waves melting pot Sulky Sue Say I do
Red blood dropping Change will you? Turn me The Hosta Takeover
Love me or kill me Step on that crack you know you're nuts when........
tragic heart let me count the ways sudden leap She jumped into her vessel
paisley she wore it black little black dress Trampled dreams
Broken Dreams Lying Eyes Black black heart White sheets
The Hole Dare Me Double Dare Dangling Feet Really Brady Moment
Alter Ego Unfolding chinese whispers intertwine Ruby Slipper
Hidden words Colored dreams The shoe fits Swallowed
hanging Guess what? Are you for real? Tell me how your garden grows
How do you know? Sailor's Delight love letters forgiveness Erotic elevator
Where did you throw your heart? Did I say you could do that? (My dad would say that when he
caught me with a glass of kahlua and milk at a Christmas Eve family party)
A stone to step on no stone left unturned Will you or won't you? Who holds the key?
Hallow be thy name, from kingdom come Black Soul You will......
Silly soup You think you know me Just do it Words happen
Go tell it on the mountain You know you're sunk when............. the tell tale girl
dreaming words silent winds slither
