National Poetry Month 2015

Welcome back, dear readers! April is upon us once again!

The rules:
- There are 53 prompts each assigned to a different playing card as detailed below.
- In the morning I will draw a card and using the randomly selected prompt, write and post by the end of the day.
- This will continue every day for the entire month.
- Due to other projects, time-consuming jobs, and short attention spans, all poems this year will be tweet length...mostly. I'll reserve the right to run long, if necessary.

Six years is a long time. Thanks for sticking with this, friends.

Enjoy!
