The Challenge Begins

I have decided that this month, perhaps longer if necessary, will be my attempt to revitalize the use of my free time toward writing. I am going to try to compile a single poem for each day of this challenge. I will create three for this past weekend, and will try to maintain this challenge for approximately forty days, and hopefully onward.

Attention all!
This is a test
of my good skills
and all the rest.

To force upon
the sunlit stage
my lack of prowess
for laughs or rage-

to force myself
to keep my craft
to stay sane
or, rather, daft!

A poem a day
for one month I'll play,
then at the end
it all depends.

Five stanzas
no less!
God willing,
God bless!

A challenge presented
a gauntlet to win
to rekindle a flame
that has grown thin.

Read, respond,
rage or scoff,
nice or badly done
and finally, I'm off!
