Wednesday Poetry Prompts: 676
Wow! It’s been a minute since our last poeming session. Time to roll up those sleeves and shake loose a poem.
For this week’s prompt, write a falling poem. The poem could be about falling in love, falling over, or falling for some scheme. And yes, I’ll totally accept a “falling poem” that has to do with autumn.
Remember: These prompts are springboards to creativity. Use them to expand your possibilities, not limit them.

Here’s my attempt at a Falling Poem:
“always falling,” by Robert Lee Brewer
i’m always falling in my dreams
but never seem to hit the ground
and yes it’s as bad as it seems
to frequently fall in my dreams
so that it could be its own meme
(and do i ever make a sound)
i’m always falling in my dreams
but never seem to hit the ground
