Poetry Friday

For the past many years, I have been part of a poetry group. Once a month, my poetry sisters and I write poems together. We pick a theme or a poetic form, and we all write our own take on things, then we share on the last Friday of the month.

Only for the past two years, I have barely written a poem, and even more rarely shared.

To quote Taylor Swift, “this is me trying.”

This month’s assignment is to write a wistful poem. Here’s my haiku:

almost time to sing

remember the forgotten

Auld lang syne
