I dropped the ball yesterday with my Inklings writing group. I had given the monthly challenge and forgot about it. Today I am trying to make up for it by combining the Ethical ELA prompt from Bryan Ripley Crandall to write about scars with the form. Shadorma poems have a syllable count of 3, 5, 3, 3, 7, 5.
Virus
weary soul
invisible scars
tenderly
heal in time
slowly becoming new skin
touched by cleansing light

The Kidlit Progressive poem is with Denise Krebs today at Dare to Care.
Reflections on the Teche 
Me too! I completely forgot and shared a book review of ‘One Step Forward.’ April is quite a full month. I tell you what…let’s just forgive and forget that we forgot and do what we can today to enjoy poetry all around us.
One step at a time. I am enjoying that book, too.
We all have just a little too much on our plates right now. I say no harm, no foul. Let’s follow Linda’s advice and forgive, forget, and keep on poeming!
Thanks for this new form. I’ll have to try a Shadorma when S comes around in the AtoZ this month. And yes, April is so busy. I meant to link to Poetry Friday and it just flew by me.
