The rice harvested
Under the glare
Of an Indian sunFrom flooded fields
To the microwave
One of many journeys

My pleasure- thank you for the intro to the cherita. By the way, do you provide prompts, are they daily/weekly…. and lastly they are presumably short forms of poetry…?

Right now micropoetry month will run all through November… the next poem-a-day project with prompts will most likely be in Feb. Thanks so much for asking Vivian.
