October: When Poets Dream, Lament and Sing


Impulses by Loui Jover ~ Pinterest
It was October again... a glorious October, all red and gold, with mellow mornings when the valleys were filled with delicate mists as if the spirit of autumn had poured them in for the sun to drain — amethyst, pearl, silver, rose, and smoke-blue. The dews were so heavy that the fields glistened like cloth of silver and there were such heaps of rustling leaves in the hollows of many-stemmed woods to run crisply through. ~ Lucy Maud Montgomery 

October is my favorite time of the year as Autumn takes us away from the externally-focused energies of exuberant summertime and asks us to pause and consider how we feel, who we are, and to reminisce. We revisit the past during this time to integrate, grieve, reflect, and heal.

A playlist (compiled for the Poet) in us:


For today's challenge, I want you all to draw inspiration from the YouTube playlist above. Pick a song that speaks to you poetically and write a poem.

You could be inspired by the title, the lyrics or just the emotions that the song evokes. Please do mention your choice somewhere in your post and remember to give credit.

Choose your own form or write in free verse, if preferred. I look forward to reading what you guys come up with. Please do visit others and remember to comment on their poems. Have fun!🍁

The Tuesday Platform

Welcome to the Imaginary Garden in Poetry Writing Month!



This is my song of the month. I love the whole concept of describing a lifetime by looking back over significant years and events and the people who influenced one, and by looking forward to anticipate what is still to come.

The Tuesday Platform is an open link, which allows you to select from any of the poems you have written before, or you can write something completely new. As an option, allow yourself to be guided by the concept in Lukas Graham's song.
