NaPoWriMo, or National Poetry Writing Month, is an annual project in which participating

 poets attempt to write a poem a day for the month of April.

online project on her blog. She invited other poets with blogs to join her in the project and listed

the participating poets. Thorson has continued to run the project each year on her blog with more 

poets participating as the word has spread about the project.

Writers Block

I have ideas
when I dream

But when I wake
they fade like steam.

I sit with paper
and its gaps
To scrape for ideas
hope for scraps

I make excuses
divert the task
I'll do whatever
the detour asks

I need to focus
and let thoughts fly
The contradiction
in minds eye

And then it comes
and writes itself
It gives it life
and rude health

A story made
a living thing
A circle made
Imaginations ring

• Brainstorm ideas in bullet points.
