Starting tomorrow, I hope to post some of the poems that came out of a poetry challenge I participated in this past November. While I didn’t stick to the schedule as diligently as I’d hoped to, I really enjoyed the prompts and ended up with a handful of poems I hope you’ll like.

The theme of this past November’s challenge was “Poems of Place.” As with the previous year’s challenge, these prompts stretched me, leading me to write on topics I might not have otherwise considered. The result are some poems I’m pretty proud of (and some others that reveal I’m still learning). Again, I hope you enjoy them!

Hey y’all,

I decided to take today’s blog post down. As I was reading the Bible this morning, I realized my treatment of a passage in the post was wrong, and I couldn’t in good conscience keep the post. I’m sorry about that. I should have been more sensitive to the Spirit in the writing process than I was committed to having something to post. I’ll work to do better from here on out.
