Let’s get this poem party started!
For today’s prompt, write a glorious poem. Often, I like to pull up definitions to understand possibilities of a word prompt. In this case, it’s maybe just as useful to look at its synonyms, which include wonderful, marvelous, illustrious, celebrated, famous, superb, spectacular, lovely, delightful, and I think you get the idea. So let’s get this poem party started with a glorious first effort.

Here’s my attempt at a Glorious Poem:
“& so it begins with music”
& so it begins with music
flowing out an open window
as he’s passing by & thinking
of someone who smiled at him
which already jump started
his heart beats & light feet
nodding his head & suddenly
he jumps off the curb & back
onto the curb before spinning
in a circle & throwing wide
his arms before taking a bow
