Poetry Prompt – April 22

April 22 – Write a poem about a snapshot of your family. It could be the perennial Christmas Tree shoot, or a candid of your siblings doing something, or the last snap of a cherished grandparent. Give each person in the picture their own stanza. 

From the Muse Library: View with a Grain of Sand: Selected Poems by Wislawa Szymborska. With acute irony tempered by a generous curiosity, Szymborska documents life’s improbability as well as its transient beauty to capture the wonder of existence.
