PAD 2

What’s more challenging than taking that first step? Taking a second step. Let’s keep November going.

For today’s prompt, write a “news of the day” poem. The poem should use some sort of recent news event as a springboard. It can be a news story from today (this morning), but it doesn’t have to be. In fact, you could even go “old school” and find news stories from archived sources–like the “news of the day” from 1936 (to pick a random year).

(type in found garage sale poem from very very first set of poems - Oberlin)?

In the news today

The sun didn't come up

because the sun never comes up.

The earth rolled over on its side

and bit by bit opened its trillions of eyes

that found

a new day visible

- bright

and sunny

- new.
