Clueless how I missed this prompt - obviously I was buried alive by Thanksgiving's minutiae! :) Wonderful prompt, Carolyn! - Jenine Bsharah Baines

We’re not suggesting you reinvent the universe — a poem will do for now! Whether it’s a broken fingernail, the pink tinge in a cloud at sunset, a leaf’s lace of ribs and veins, the drip-drip from a leaking tap, an owl’s unblinking stare, it’s the attention to small details, the minutiae, that makes writing and reading poetry such an intriguingly unique and rewarding experience.
