Raj808 weaves a beautiful poem using a daily freewrite prompt parasol & blossom, the Freewrite Poetry Digest special prompt. He shares a link in Spoken word. We have to share this poem, our first spoken word freewrite poem, which takes us deep into the intoxicating scent of long​-awaited​ Spring!

Some poems can be so small yet produce vibrant imagery, enjoy with us the lovely poetry of @wordymouth in relation to his original image of a rose (we love roses!)

I don't ordinarily include my own poetry for the digest, but I received a request to include this poem from @brisby:
Please include this in the Freewrite House's Poetry Digest this week!! Your poem is absolutely lovely! Your flow with the music, the corridor and the journey on as the cares fall away had me both entranced and returning for a second read! Thank you @brisby for the lovely review!

@killbride presents vivid and unusually interesting poetic imagery with this poetic description of parasol.

I am honored to be included and love what you're doing here with the poetrydigest @freewritehouse. So many great poetic voices expressing themselves with a little help of a prompt. What I have noticed, is that the prompts really help on those days where everything you write just feels trite and overused. This is my experience anyway, on those days the only thing which gets me writing half decent stuff is a freewrite prompt. Keep up the good work, many thanks :-)

We love to here these testimonies! I can't agree more. Many times it is the prompt which pulls muse out of me. Thank you for writing with us.

Thank you!!! We love that you are writing with us!!!

Can't wait to read some of these works. I may have to take a couple days. Congratulations 👏

So glad that you want to write with us. You find the daily prompt at this profile @mariannewest and make sure you tag your poems written based on a prompt with freewritepoetrydigest. Maybe yours will be picked for a feature, one never knows.

What an honor to be among these talented writers. I sure do love this feature of the Freewrite House. Thank you! : )

Hi @wandrnrose7, I'm a little late to the party this week but made it in the end lol

This is a poem (and audio reading with effects) based on the prompt 'big wave' :-)
