First day of Pigmas! Taking into account some of the feedback in the opening thread, ye respondents may follow one of three tiers:
(1 - GOLD) Write a sonnet based on the day's prompt. The final goal is to produce something approximating a crown of sonnets!
(2 - FRANKINCENSE) Write a poem of a particular form based on the day's prompt. The final goal is to produce something approximating a crown of that form.
(3 - MYRRH) Write a poem on the day's prompt based on your choice of poem from the previous day's prompt, making sure it's the same form as the poem you're responding to.
Today's prompt:
Write a poem involving a long journey.
(All the prompts will be "involving", rather than strictly "based on". You can choose to write about anything else, for instance -- sonnets are often love poems -- but you have to use a long journey as, say, a metaphor.)
