Prompt Response: Give me an idea and I will give you a poem.

By Ruth Y. Nott

Definitions are arbitrary and open to interpretation. What one person calls poetry may be prose or ordinary writing to another.Ruth Nott lays no claim to expertise in poetry. What she writes comes from the heart or a lively imagination, written quickly or with lengthy thought and intense examination. " It just comes. It is what it is." As the title of this book indicates, most of what Ruth has written during the past year has been in response to weekly or daily poetry prompts provided by the good folks and readers of Robert Lee Brewer's Poetic Asides Blog on the web at www.writersdigest.com.Her poems of 2013 are presented here as the year progressed, showing the date and the prompt; however, very few were written on the date of the prompt, some being written months later when the mood struck her to sit down and write again. Those poems which have no prompt indicated are unprompted except by a nudge from her muse. Ruth states "As I age, time speeds by and thoughts slow to a crawl. Bear with me and I hope you enjoy the poems of 2013."
