It feels really odd and a little unreal that my personal year-long #frapalymo ends by the end of this month.
I have managed to post a new poem a day for a year when the month is over. What an achievement. Well, I cheated a little because I did not write a poem per day. Sometimes I wrote more than one but posted it later. Day job and other challenges did not allow it any other way but I guess it does not matter. This last month I do write one a day 🙂 thanks to @FrauPaulchen and therefore I head over to find her own words for today’s prompt:
(This is my translation from @FrauPaulchen’s post here)
that were gorgeous honey-poems – great, how different all of you have been inspired. thank you for being so open.
today I stumbled over the word „überaus“ * and it stayed with me. and in a #frapalymo month this “staying with me” can have consequences. that is why I invite you to stay with this word and with the help of my friend “Duden” (German dictionary) verse about the „überaus“.
the prompt for the #frapalymo poem on 5. May is: “verse about the word „überaus/exceedingly“. take this duden/Collins-link and be inspired – the synonym area invites to other interpretations of “exceedingly”… or you stay with the exact word and put it under the (poet’s) magnifying glass. have fun!
and the small print: please let me know via email or Twitter if you take part. then i can post the link to your blog/poem on Twitter. or post the link in the comments under the daily prompt post on my blog. hashtag for Twitter is #frapalymo and I am @FrauPaulchen.
*Leo translates this as “exceedingly, acutely, extremely, excessively, prolific, goody-goody, blistering” none of which give me the impression to be exactly what the German word means. The closest is “exceedingly” that is why I went for this word in the translation
