Perhaps, but I have a lot going on at the moment, it is likely I'll miss some days.


You might not be able to complete it; however, whatever you can complete will be worth it. You can say you tried. And, it will still be a good challenge for you!

Yeah, one may not get a trophy for only doing only 15 or 20 or 25 poems, but the real reward is in getting your brain exercised.

How Do I Say Goodbye

The loss of a loved one, heart wrenching
The loss of my mother paralysing

When she passed, I think I died too
Nothing I imagined, unable to shine through

Eleven years, my morning unfinished
As if her value would be diminished

The strongest person I have known
I feel her absence in every bone

I know not how to be whole again
Most days, simply present, I feign

In my dreams, I feel our paths cross
Yet cannot recover from my tragic loss
