Jenny (jeoblivion) | 4893 comments If you would like to share one of your favourite poems during a week in December please sign up below. Feel free to pick a specific week or just let me know that you would like to be part of The Monday Poem, in which case I'll select one for you. The schedule will be filled in as people sign up.

Since the schedule hasn't been filling as fast lately, there's no need to wait a few months between signups; feel free to sign up even if you've already shared a poem recently, whenever you like.

week 1 (Monday December 5th) - Gill
week 2 (Monday December 12th) - Janessa
week 3 (Monday December 19th) - Terri
week 4 (Monday December 26th) -

PREY
by NMK

Never did the fly know,
The little volant insect,
Of the warty toad
Waiting patiently for him.

And never did the toad know,
The round cold amphibian,
Of the slithering snake
Moving calmly up to him

And never did the snake know,
The long tattooed reptile,
Of the eyeing eagle
Swooping gently up to him.

And never did the eagle know,
The large spanning avian,
Of the predator man
Aiming silently at him.

And never, never did the man know,
The always wise mammal,
Of the treacherous fellow man
Drawing quietly his dagger behind.

Jenny (jeoblivion) | 4893 comments Hey NKM, welcome to the group. While they are many groups out there which offer the chance to share and promote your own writing, this one has a fairly strict self-promotion policy. Please check the Group Rules here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
You are very welcome to sign up for a Monday Poem just please refrain from posting your own writing. Thank you.
