Well, this was a challenging one folks, seeing as how it’s been snowing on and off this week, and my ghazal prompts are all about….spring.
My first prompt was a question, “If spring had a colour, it would be…” (Feel free to use this prompt for a writing exercise/journal prompt)
I had some unique, stunning responses– from beryl to blush– but citrine won out!
To read/hear my first ghazal of my Ghazal Project challenge, look no further:
What is the Ghazal Project?
In celebration of National Poetry Month: Every Monday in April, I will post a prompt for my facebook & instagram followers, and will choose one of their responses (namely, a word), to create a refrain for an original ghazal— which I will write, record and publish to be read and heard on Friday. Tune in on Monday for the next prompt!
