Someone asked if I had a compilation of all the poems posted in April for the National Poetry Month Poemapalooza here at 37days. No, and then yes. I didn’t have one, but I created one. In case you’d like it, it is here (PDF): 30 days of poems. Write a poem, read a poem, be one.

Thanks for sparking the poetic all through the month! I will linger with your compilation during May and beyond….
It also sounds like you have the seed of a writing exercise; how many times can you legitimately write Billy in one paragraph? Maybe that could be a new challenge?
btw, I mention this because it may happen to others with absentee memories too.
Can word verification for comments be on the same page? A few times I push post and then close forgetting the next screen so comment doesn’t make it thru.
