NaPoWriMo–Day 21–Blackout Poem

Happy New Year everyone! I am an optimist! Therefore, I am looking forward to this New Year and all the new challenges it may bring! To start it off, and add to the fun of creating poems, I have decided to challenge myself to write some poetry using new forms that I have not yet tried. Today I have chosen the form “Sedoka”. I hope you enjoy!
