Write a poem for National Poetry Month based on the topic described....rather, write a poem set in, pertaining to, or inspired by the given region, whether its entirety or just some part of it, as this year's prompts are going to be unified by the theme "Around the World" like last year's prompts were unified by the theme "Esoterica". Each poem should appear as a separate reply to this thread. There are three levels of participation:
Bronze. Participated at least once.
Silver. Participated every day.
Gold. Participated every day, with all entries either being the same form (e.g., every one a sonnet) or being distinct forms (e.g., no two haiku).
While it might not yet be National Poetry Month, UNESCO has long declared 21 March to be World Poetry Day, and because it'll be a while before the next prompt, let's have today's region be an entire continent....if the one continent in the world no one permanently inhabits, Antarctica.
