POEM ADDRESSING CONSPIRACY THEORISTS You're right to understand the underlying devious intentions of this poem. You are definitely on to something. You should really examine my other poems too (just google me) and notice the clues I have left behind. You might want to share what you find with others by starting a blog, informing the media, making videos, etc. I have said to my wife and others that I don't understand how few people notice the prophecy in my work. For reasons that are probably obvious to you, I don't want to directly address what I'm not openly addressing, except to say that, yes, I am addressing what you think I am. I know; it blows my mind too!

Join me starting tomorrow, April 1, to celebrate National Poetry Month.

Use the prompts either to write your own daily poem 🖋️ or to read 1 poem a day 📖

The graphic is also available on my blog along with my thoughts on the importance of poetry: http://wanderinglynn.com/2025/03/20/celebrating-poetry/

I‘m hosting a poetry challenge in April for National Poetry Month. I plan to write 1 poem a day & created a list of prompts. 🖋️

If you don‘t want to write a poem, then the challenge is to read 1 poem a day (bonus if you read one that fits the prompt). 🎉

The graphic is also available on my blog along with my thoughts on poetry: http://wanderinglynn.com/2025/03/20/celebrating-poetry/

Everyone is welcome to join! #aprilpoetrychallenge

peanutnine This is a fun idea! I haven't written poetry in ages, I might try a couple prompts. But I definitely want to make an effort to read more poetry in April 2w

tpixie Since many of these are nature words, you may love to see this book. The history behind it is incredible. It‘s a response to the Oxford Junior Dictionary omitting 40 words related to nature and instead adding technical words. The author and illustrator were saddened by the disconnect between children and childhood and nature and wrote the book with beautiful illustrations and poetry. 2w

Littens, I would like to give a mentor a book of poetry as a thank you. I don‘t know what all he has, but from the poetry he has shared with me I know he likes Rumí, Mary Oliver, and Toni Morrison. He likes religious themes of divine love and personal growth/journey themes but not overly ornate forms. Any recommendations of the more obscure type so I might give him something he had not already encountered?

Smrloomis I don‘t know but saw this list with Aina Hanau and thought it looked great. https://bookriot.com/best-poetry-collections-2023/ 14mo
Sapphire @Smrloomis thanks! I will check it out! 14mo
SheilaChew This book is short stories but it has those themes and he might enjoy@it. It is a beautiful book. 14mo
