Poetry Digest Edition 29

Poetry Digest - Edition 29

Welcome back to the weekly @freewritehouse Poetry Digest brought to you by @wandrnrose7. It's been a prolific poetry week and we are excited to showcase more of our freewriters beautiful and humorous poems. Thank you @curie for donating the Steem Basic Income share to help us reward in curation! Now, on with our gems!

@wonderwop begins our curation:
I found a first ever #freewrite poem from @owasco tonight on the prompt take care. She did an excellent job on these verses as she described why we need to take care of ourselves, because nobody can do that better than yourself. She wants us to be happy and healthy, this is a must read.

I think @d00k13 had as much fun writing his poem as he did making his cookies. The cookies he makes have a fun design but no cookie cutter is needed. I have never made these cookies but I have eaten them, and they are delicious. Read his fun poem to find out what kind of cookies he makes.

@kaerpediem curates another freewritepoem using prompt wild and wooly
I have been running around helter skelter as usual with unexpected surprises that life brings, not always pleasant. The last couple of days maybe a little extra than the usual. Then I told myself, today I must read some FreeWrites and I came across this poem from and Bam, it was almost like a fragment of my thoughts.I loved the message but what I loved more was the prompt that brought it on. Oh yes... give me some of that!! Thank you for putting a smile on my face @wakeupkitty

@improv curates a freewrite poem by @tobetada:
I really enjoyed https://steemit.com/freewrite/@tobetada/freewrite-contest-day-467-wild-and-woolly by @tobetada! It had just enough of a children's rhyming feel, ala Shel Silverstein, to evoke that sense of childhood that was its subject matter, but plenty of gravitas to tell us that it is a poem about being a child, not a poem for children.

@wandrnrose7 curates:

This beautifully written and produced author reading by @deepsouthpiddlin because the message is so needed in this world. Her thoughts on success and self love are timely and universal.

This poetry selection was chosen to celebrate a mother's selfless love and sacrifice for her children. Those moments of sacrifice and affection are implanted deeply in her offspring.

We end our weekly curation with a delightfully humorous poem brought to us by @whatisnew who presents a Italian Sunday dinner with a surprise ending. I hope it leaves you all smiling as it did me!
