April 4, 2026: Triumph, Possibility, Fire


Happy Saturday! Today’s prompt will hopefully be an act of self-celebration.

Today’s Prompt

Write a self-portrait poem exploring the topics of Triumph, Possibility, and Fire.

I love how the Fire card aligns so well with the other two. Of course, you don’t have to write about triumphs that have happened—you can also explore triumphs you seek, triumphs you resist, or possibilities outside of triumph.
