Poem-a-Day

Poetic Asides on The Writer website is offering prompts for a poem a day during National Poetry Month.

Give it a try! I think I will.

Firsts
there is no greater fear
than that first step
out into the oblivion of chance
possibility, opportunity

there is no greater act of courage
than that first step
out of the known
uncertain, excited

there is no greater joy
than that first step
out of the mundane
into beauty
into love
into your arms
