Welcome to my April 2026 Great and Powerful Blogging from A to Z Challenge!

I’ve revealed my theme (A poem a day…maybe even with pictures), and of course, I am unashamedly blogging my theme letters on the fly.  So, here goes nothing!

So, without further ado, H is for Hell, this should have been for I is for Insomnia…sigh.

The assignment today was to write a pantoum, so I did and here it is.

Insomnia

I lie awake in bed at night,
thoughts of work run through my brain
chastise me over things I did
amid chattering reminders of those I didn’t.

Thoughts of work run through my brain,
plans I made changed out of my hands
amid chattering reminders of those I didn’t
inform of altered expectations.

Plans I made, changed out of my hands
call out in endless echos. They
inform of altered expectations,
to tell me to let go and move on,

call out in endless echos. They
bounce into a black hole of chaos,
tell me to let go and move on
or lose my mind in insomnia. So I

bounce into a black hole of chaos,
chastise myself over things I did
or lose my mind in insomnia, So
I lie awake in bed at night.

Thanks for visiting my 2026 A to Z Challenge – Letter H.
