PAD: Moving Day Wish

PAD November 1st prompts:  Procrastination or Proactive

My coat needs a hook
My clothes need a dresser
My paintings need a wall
My shoes need a closet
Is there a cupboard for my food,
A refrigerator for my produce?
Is there a space for my music to fill,
A desk for me to write at?
I dream of a headboard
I dream of an area rug
I wish for new curtains
I wish for a proper coffeepot
Really,
All I need is a room warmed by love
A space lit by inspiration
Four walls and a door
Filled up by me

Poem A Day idea & rules:
“…today just happens to be a Tuesday, which means two prompts! For those new to the PAD challenge, you can pick one of the two prompts or do both–if that’s how you roll. Also, you can share your poem(s) for today’s prompts in the comments attached to this specific post below. Click here for the complete guidelines. Don’t stress out; I’m pretty laid back about this whole poeming experience.”
-Robert Lee Brewer
