This is not a dumping ground for pre-writes. I will allow them, but I prefer fresh writes. Make sure pre-writes really fit the prompts. Here they are:
Word Prompts:
1. Tear(s)
2. Laughter
3. Bubble(s)
4. Childhood
5. Poet(ry)
6. Independence
7. Shackled
8. Bigotry
9. Deserted
10.Blessed
Or write about:
11. the very tough subject of having a miscarriage (been there eleven times) or losing a child, whether it be your own or a grandchild.
12. the topic of divorce.
13. your HAPPY childhood memories.
14. the fear of losing a parent or another loved one.
15. one of your deepest non-sexual fantasies.
Or consider these pictures:

Dreaded Rules:
1. Be nice and courteous to me and the auther poets.
2. Try to comment on at least one other work. Poets love to get feedback. Admit it. You know you do!
3. Do not molest your Caps key.
4. No dirty pretty or chat talk
5. Limit profanity.
6. Mark adult appropriately in the title!!
7. Credit any photos in your author notes.
8. YOU MUST put the prompt number AND word/topic in your author notes. I'm not a mind reader.
9. Any genre, any form welcome, except dirty pretty.
10. Good spelling and grammar is a must!
11. Have fun.
I'll comment on all poems!
