The Last Poem for NaPoWriMo 2015

This Poem is dedicated to My NaPoWriMo Coach ANTO .... without your encouragement I would have fizzled, flopped, faded and feinted in the funky fresh fallopian tube of eternity ... Thank YOU XX :)

NaPoWriMo 

has come to an end 

ahhhhhh - as I take a 

mighty exhale 

National 

Poetry 

Writing
Month 

is held in April 

to write a poem 

a day 

for 

30

days 

the only objective 

what did I learn?

it is an art I’d say 

yes an art 

yet it shouldn’t be at all 

for we are tap, tap, tapping 

into the creative force 

each poem born 

was meant to call

when you let the 

prana flow right through you 

electrifying along the way 

vitality slips

into action 

life’s juice has 

something to say 

and just like meditation 

tapping in - not out 

becomes a norm 

words are proffered up 

in some kind of prose 

bringing with it unique form 

your mind translates

the image 

of all that is connected

for its true your words 

they have a place

a life gift to be reflected

running out of steam now 

reduced to a little puff 

number 30 - this is it 

now it’s time to do some other stuff ….



(that’s what you call a soft ending) 

((and I’m ok with that))

Beautiful write....about an amazing pass time.......the end is just a beginning right.....in any case, lovely , just lovely :)

nothing like soft endings...and yes, it shouldn't be an art maybe because are we really responsible for these words that flow towards us, then through us?

we are conduits, in a way....but i think artists also in that what we do paints those pictures with words.

you made it! 30 for 30----good job, KWP...

P.S. If you wouldn't mind, I would love it if you could please review my work. I'm trying to get one step closer to publishing; but can't do that without your help!

"for its true your words
they have a place
a life gift to be reflected"

Resembles the integrity of the word

They do have place
