CPC POETRY CHALLENGE PREVIEW: The Friday Fling Gets Down To Basics With Comfort Food!
This is a special preview for the CPC Friday Fling poetry challenge. Poems should be posted there after the challenge opens Thursday evening at 9 PM EST.
Friday Fling #215 for January 18th 2013
Let’s face it. It’s the dead of winter and many of us have cold weather and snow and ice and slush and it can get you down a little after awhile. So what do you do? More specifically, what do you like to EAT?
Comfort food can take different forms depending on tastes and opportunities. Tell us about what you consider midwinter comfort food, and how you get it or make it and enjoy it!
As to format, we’re going to get back to some basics this week. Try writing your comfort food poem in four line stanzas in ABAB rhyme, and in even syllable counts per line. That is, where the cadence is the same, anywhere between 4 and 12 syllables per line. No minimum or maximum on the number of stanzas, but two to six would be ideal for our blog purposes.
This week the Friday Fling touts favorite midwinter comfort foods in a basic comfortable poetic form!
Be sure to save time to read and comment comfortably on your fellow Pals’ food faves!
Then maybe go find some of your favorite comfort food to enjoy this weekend!
Fickle Finger of Fate Award for January 11th
