1. Well done, David – I think your micropoems are great and I’m glad you are joining in. I really like the format of this post: did you add the tweets as images?

   1. Thanks, Ingrid – for the idea and the kind compliment.

      I created the post using the WP block editor, and there’s a “twitter” block that allows us to feature individual tweets, which I used for each poem.

      1. Thanks – I will try that next time!

2. Hello Ben. I have just followed you. I enjoyed your poems, especially the last one for some reason – it seemed to echo in my head.

   1. Thank you so much, Elizabeth – having one of my poems echo in somebody else’s head is just about the highest compliment I could imagine receiving.

      Yours,
      David

3. One poem a day is a great goal David. And hashtags in a poetry is so new and interesting 🙂

   1. Yeah, it felt… natural, Deb. Weird, right? 🙂

4. Gut Shabbos. Thankfully with technology you can preschedule your posts. Twitter is not for me so thank you for posting here.

   1. Thanks, Lauren!!!

5. I just followed you on Twitter.

   1. 🥰

6. Nice. I’m not so sure all of your poems qualify as micropoetry but they are definitely poetry! And they are definitely good!

   1. Muri, how do you define micropoetry? This is new to me!

      Thank you!
      David

7. Lovely monorhyme and nice idea.

   1. Gitanjali,

      I can’t claim credit for the idea at all – that was Ingrid! You should join us 🙂

      Yours,
      David

      1. Sure will reinstate my twitter 😊

8. I never got to like twitter your poems under par as usual, what is your Andy Cap🔞

   1. You know, as a rule, I don’t like Twitter, but I really liked Ingrid’s idea, and Twitter seemed like a the perfect platform for it 🙂

9. Lovely start to your new year, David! Loved the poems. ❤️❤️💐

   1. Thank you, Diana 🙂

10. Wowwww…. these are all good. They look nice on Twitter (I just checked them out over there), what a great idea…
    My fave is the one at the top — “swift stream begins…” So, so beautiful.

    1. Thanks, Lia 🙂

11. Hey David, I see I’m a little late to the party. I’ll be starting writing fresh twitter poetry from tomorrow too, taking the challenge to write one poem a day. See you there~ Jay

    1. 🎉🥳

12. Aw these are really good! I like the idea although it seems really challanging! 🤩

    1. The greatest challenges for me are the calendar keeping and the stick-to-it-iveness… because the project requires that I stay on top of the days and not skip any by accident 🤓

       -David

13. These are great, David! Thanks for sharing here.

    1. Thanks, Punam 💕

       1. You are welcome. ❤️

14. I don’t mind a bit of micropoetry at all.

    1. Delia,

       I only got into it this year! It’s fun 😀

       Yours,
       David

       1. Never wrote much micropoetry myself but been experimenting and expanding much more over the last few years!

          1. me too! (well, at least I’ve been trying to!)
