How many times have you said that? I was saying it on the third day of the challenge. I was also saying that I don't want to be a quitter but I am not liking this. I really hate it. I really hate all those people who started early and posted their achievements and happiness with the outcomes. I was feeling alone until I saw that some people waited for April to do a poem a day. So I stuck it out.

Let's be real! I've been entering poetry contests and not even getting much needed feedback. So being accepted as a poetry month scout made me feel proud although I hadn't the foggiest idea about found poetry.
Come day 3 in after the white-out challenge when the white out tape was controlling me and not vice versa, defeat is telling me to quit but I threw up my post although it looked sloppy and not very poetic. After calming down, I started looking at other posts and realized that this could be a learning experience.
So I wanted the challenge and the feel of someone judging that I am worthy of a badge, I'm glad I'm sticking to it to learn something new.
So here's a poem from my latest poetry book where I see poetry in road signs and monuments (share your opinion below):
