Happy

From Tasha:  

What makes you Happy? 

You could write in answer to the ? or simply interpreting the "you" as anyone, or however you wish to interpret the prompt.

Secret

 From Linda:

Write a poem about the word secret. 

It can be a real secret, a secret place, secret word, a secret person ... anything secret. 

It doesn’t have to be your secret, it can be a fictional secret or someone else’s secret.

Goodbye to 2020

 From Tad:

2020 saw many fine poets go gentle or ungentle into that good night. The Poetry Foundation ran a valedictory for them, with memorable lines for each poet. Here are a few of them.

• The dark tastes of salt and oranges.   -- Ralph Angel
• Unclasp your hands and surrender flight -- William Bearheart
• But what else can a mother give her daughter but such beautiful rifts in time?  - Eavan Boland
• So much hope now around the heart of lightning -- Kamau Braith
• What is unfathomable in all of us? - Michael Friedman
• The hidden source is the watchful heart  -- Derek Mahon

Write a poem using one of these as inspiration. You can either use the line, or vary it. The dark can taste of something else - or it can trigger a different sense. The gift from a mother to daughter may be inspired by Eavan Boland, but you may have your own ideas of how rifts in time can be a gift. Or you may have a totally different gift in mind. By the time you're done, it should be your poem.
