Our prompt this week is Farewell.

Our prompt this week is Anaphora.

I have been doing an online poetry workshop that covered anaphora, so this prompt is more about form than subject. According to Poets.org, “The term anaphora refers to a poetic technique in which successive phrases or lines begin with the same words, often resembling a litany. The repetition can be as simple as a single word or as long as an entire phrase.”
Please share your anaphora poem in the comments.

Our prompt this week is Intentions.
