National Poetry Month 2019


Happy National Poetry Month! (For anyone who doesn’t like poems and thinks this post is a cruel April Fool’s joke, you are wrong. April is National Poetry Month. The entire month. It’s a real thing.)

In honor of National Poetry Month, I wanted to open April with a poem. I found two. These gems were written for a friend of mine. We met in the workplace (not the same one I’m currently at). We’re both a little goofy and a little (a lot?) crazy.

A Limerick to a Pal
There’s a woman who may charge like a moose,
Who in her anger censures the obtuse.
Her fury is huge;
It’ll cascade in a deluge.
But that’s okay; she’s agile as a mongoose.

AN ANGRY HAIKU
Fury multiplied.
Bursting forth in drowning waves.
Thunderous anger.
