An Express It In Eight poem about the the homonym "prompt"

Homonymic Poetry

The prompt today is punctuality
So here’s some homonymic poetry

Most often prompt describes not being late
but it’s also used to help writers create.

A glance at my watch shows it’s half past four
And though I should tweak it just a tad more
I must be prompt in finishing this rhyme
I promised my date I’d be ready on time.
