My Undoing ….

Hello Poetry Lovers

Today’s poetry prompt has been the term ‘Un’ . Understanding there are endless possibilities with this when you think about it. I’ve made this piece a bit bitter sweet. I hope you like it

Unfulfilled

Undoing my shoes 

Undressing at night alone 

Understated underwear 

Ungainly half-slips 

Unwashed knickers 

Unmade up face 

Unfit for purpose 

Undercooking the supper

In an unoiled pan 

Understanding – or not –

That you’re working late

Unscheduled of course 

Unplanned but unfortunately 

undone  

I don’t unpack my bags this time 

I write you an underscored email 

And undo the front door 

Thanks for tuning in, Poetry Lovers. I hope you weren’t underwhelmed by this word exercise. I look forward to hearing your own particular uninhibited pieces on this exercise.

We’ll be back with more poetry adventures real soon…
