Day-23
NaPoWriMo-2026
Prompt: Today’s prompt takes its inspiration from Kiki Petrosino’s loose villanelle, “Nursery.” Try your hand today at your own take on a villanelle, and have the poem end on a question.
Between the clouds and the water
Lies the world of a dreamer
Where her dreams walk with the muse
In the light of day, and at night
Moves the muse of her thoughts
Between the clouds and the water
Sometimes poetry hides
Sometimes poetry sings
Where her dreams walk with the muse
There are many shades
Suffixed and prefixed
Between the clouds and the water
Words chase the hope
In the waning of seasons
Where her dreams walk with the muse
Serenading, sunrise, and sunset
Poetry gives her life, it seems
Between the clouds and the water
Can her dreams walk with the muse?
