So, I really tried to do the NaPoWriMo prompt, but couldn’t. These forms are not good for me so I went with another source for a prompt (http://www.writersdigest.com/editor-blogs/poetic-asides/poetry-prompts). So here’s my attempt at an instruction poem.
Lessons from Birds
At some point this morning,
the beautiful and harmonious songs of the birds
were replaced by the incessant cawing of the crows.
You said it was a metaphor –
the way I did not notice the songs
but did notice the alarming call of the crow.
I know you’re right – you always are,
I know I have always been more drawn by cries than songs and
at the end of the day
I must learn, just as you have,
how to be more willing to hear music
in a world filled with alarms.

“I must learn…how to be more willing to hear music in a world filled with alarms.” What a wonderful line! Cool poem. I found you through NaPoWriMo.
I enjoy your NAPOWRIMO attempts… good job… as a former teacher, I particularly related to the one about the perfect class….
