Okay, I'll add yours. I don't want it to be too hard--just not too easy. I won't add "never" or "angel"

I have to say, that list is beginning to take on a devilish glint the closer we get to April! I tell myself, I did it last year and I can do it again if I want to but, well... gulp.
“Be happy with what you have and are, be generous with both, and you won't have to hunt for happiness.”
I have fractions of ideas for some of these. Since I'm not working on them, they haven't even made it to notes yet.

We still need prompts. I'm adding a couple now, but more is better.

How about writing about something invisible? Or a journey? Perhaps a picture prompt... maybe each pick someone else's avatar?!

I like picking an avatar.

I'm thinking that maybe if there aren't enough prompts, maybe we can also cherry-pick from the ones on the official webpage? I know there's bound to be the odd one that I fancy.
Not long to go...! I'm trying to concentrate on finishing up the prose project I'm working on so I can give over April to poetry again, but it's difficult. It's the danger of having prompts already accessible so the worms in my brain begin to wriggle early.

How about a poem extrapolated from song lyrics, just a single line from any song?
Well, we already have #21, which is write a response to a poem. That could be expanded to include lyrics. I like that.
