Lillian here, hosting the pub from Boston where spring is trying its best to arrive!

Today is Open Link Night (OLN) at dVerse, the virtual pub for poets around the globe. This means you’re invited to post ONE poem of your choosing on Mr. Linky below. There is no required form, prompt, or length;
OR
you may use today’s OPTIONAL PROMPT which has to do with graffiti or what some call street art. The images below are from a stay we had in Valparasio, Chile some years ago. If you choose the optional prompt, choose one of these images to motivate your creativity today.

REMEMBER: If you choose the OPTIONAL PROMPT, you may only use one of the images above.
AND, I do hope to see you on Saturday at our LIVE session!

New to dVerse? Need to be refreshed on the rules? Here’s what to do:

• Write ONE poem of your choosing (no required form, length, topic) OR ONE poem related to one of the graffiti images above.
• Post the ONE poem to your blog AND add the exact URL for your poem to Mr. Linky below.
• REMEMBER to either TAG dVerse in your post, or include a link at the end of your poem that leads readers back to dVerse (https://dversepoets.com). 
• If you do not TAG or include a link to dVerse at the end of your post, I will gently remind you to do so. After all, this will increase your readership and comments, and others will find dVerse and hopefully join in the fun. If you do not add the TAG or link after my reminder, I will remove your post from Mr. Linky. I do not want to do that! So please do include the TAG or link!
