Hands

This week's prompt is from Tasha:

My prompt for this week is Hands: There are a number of ways his word can be used: Someone hands someone something, Hands the noun meaning appendages at the end of arms or workers on a ship- as in all hands on deck. Have fun however you wish to interpret the word, just use it in a poem or two!

Left out...

From Tad Richards:

Write a poem about, or including a reference to, someone you’ve never included in a poem before. Someone you know, or someone in your family, not a celebrity.

Time

Linda Bole gives us this prompt and apologizes for not having posted or commented for the last prompt. Her internet has been down and it was supposed to be up by the end of this week. Hopefully it is...

Write about anything to do with time. Time is on your side (The Rolling Stones). Time travel. Use your time wisely and write a time oriented poem.

A Week's Worth of Prompts

PLEASE NOTE: The limit of poems for the prompts is still a TOTAL of two poems.

What's in your pocket?

We all do it. Shove that stray receipt, coins, Kleenex etc in our pockets and if you're like me, on laundry day, somethings might get missed and left in your pocket. So tell us, in a poem, what's in your pocket?
