      I think my moving to the wild rhythm got up and went along with my get up and go.

      Honestly, most of the time lately I don't feel like dancing either, I just feel broken. I try to make the posts a little lighter though as not to scare everyone away with all of the darkness of my heart.

      I couldn't find a place to leave a comment (maybe I'm just dense).
      Great poem! When I was a kid growing up in New Mexico, the Navajo tribe would have a powwow at the high school every Friday, and everyone was welcome. I thought it was a great way for people of all races to connect and learn to understand each other was well as learning more about the Navajo people.

    Day 17, #OctPoWriMo2020

    My Favorite Poetry type is Acrostic and the theme of the poem today is “Magic in My Life” where I try to search for magic and happiness in the daily hullabaloo of life.
    Started with the theme in mind, but as I progressed , my thoughts took a different turn, hence finished on a different note.

    Here's a little bit of fun, I guess this one's on-prompt without even looking at it sideways.

    Day 17. My poem has nothing to do with the prompt today although I did use some of the suggested words. A little step back in history for this one.

    A day late, but catching up. No wild rhythm, but an Abcderian about peace.
