A Favorite Freewrite Poem

Recommend Freewrite Poetry is our newest weekly event at the Freewrite House.

So many of you are gifted poets and sometimes, we don’t find all the wonderful poems. As always, all of us together are going to be so much better. We see more poems and all of us have different tastes and opinions. We like to hear them!

Win, Win, Win!!!

You Tell Us about your favorite Freewrite Poem for a Chance to Win Memberships in Steem Basic Income.

Remember the comment must be at least 50 words long - no upper limit!



In an ideal world, you also give that person a nice upvote - but we are not going to check on that.

So, to be entered into the drawing, tell us about a Freewrite poem you really liked and why.

  • Find a Freewrite Poem

At 8 PM Pacific time the day after the publishing of this post, we will close the contest and draw the winner through a random number generator. This will give you almost 36 hours to post your comment.

Finding a Freewrite Poem

If you are not familiar with the daily freewrite prompt and the many wonderful writers who produce the most amazing 5-minute (or sometimes much longer) Freewrites, go to @mariannewest and look for the prompt. The graphics look like this

In the comments, you find lots of links to all kind of Freewrites and Freewrite poems. We are asking the poets to use the #freewritepoetry or #freewritepoetrydigest but not all do. Search high and low for those wonderful poems.

Today I would like you feature a cute little poem from our local kitty cat 🐈 @whatisnew the prompt for that day was quit so she created a couple of mischievous twits for her poem. Anytime you can work in zit popping, I'm gonna recommend you. 🤣 I don't know how to create a poem in 5 minutes, but our kitty cat is very good at it. Please give it a read and an upvote. 🙏

HaHa! Thanks so much Bruni! : )

I am blown away by the talented @tezmel. Her prose is even more beautiful than most blues songs I’ve heard. Every word moved me.

The most impactful part of this poem was her separation of feelings and personal experience as single lines, where visual narrative was equal and plentiful. It had a numbing yet aching effect on me, the reader.

My favorite is by @wandrnrose7 titled, "Depths of Blue Fire." This sultry poem has a tempo that rises to go along with a climactic moment in time. It just keeps getting hotter and hotter. There is not much more that I can say without giving it away, so you will just have to read it for yourself. You don't want to miss this one. https://steemit.com/freewritepoetrydigest/@wandrnrose7/depths-of-bue-fire

https://steemit.com/freewritepoetrydigest/@michellpiala/our-differences-shouldn-t-divide-us-or-freewrite-blues

I love @michellpiala's use of deep rhythmic rhyming in this one. It helps drive us through the moments of the poem that are hard to handle emotionally, so that we can get to the call to action at the end!

Glad that I get to be the one to recommend her poem, and I do! (I assume she's a woman, but I shouldn't assume anything.)
