O is for “O Captain! My Captain!” of Course.
O Captain! My Captain! BY WALT WHITMAN O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done, The ship has weather’d every rack, the prize we sought is won, The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring; But O heart! heart! heart!

Nikki Giovanni is one of the biggest poetic inspirations in my life. She helped me to discover poetry which I wrote all about in this post to commemorate National Poetry Month, My Poet’s Soul. Here are some great qoutes from Nikki that I hope inspire you. Click here to see all my A to Z Challenge posts

Today is the traditional theme reveal day, in which each blogger that is participating reveals what their theme for the month will be. I am new to this challenge so, I am a little intimidated about writing a post for every letter of the alphabet during the month of April. Even the thought of a theme threw me for a minute. What could I come up with that would give me something to write about…
