Book of poems written for the second and third years of the Promptly Poetry Challenge.

2023 Quill Nominee


Poems written for Promptly Poetry Years Two and Three. Year three is four poems short of being complete but, having reached 100, I have run out of room in this book for the last few of 2023. This overflow will be consigned to the previous collection of Promptly poems, named Promptly Poetry.

Fast Flowers

Felicity, the mobile florist,
delivers on the run,
on the beach or in the forest,
and always dressed to stun.

Flower power for every hour,
at sea or by the river,
down a mine or up a tower,
she’s ever ready to deliver.

She needs no shop nor stall,
has flowers for her clothes,
gathered before she calls,
spreads seeds where’er she goes.

Flowers for every occasion,
in sprays and wreaths and bunch,
both local and Eurasian,
for weddings and for lunch.
