Greetings, Poetry Lovers! Happy Poetry Month. I'm hoping to chime in for the last half, but for now I'm still up to my elbows wrangling order out of the chaos of moving. (Studio is coming along nicely, though! Pics soon.)
There is SO much goodness being generated by my Poetry Friday pals this month, please drop by Jama's Alphabet Soup to partake of the montly events roundup. (Jama adds to it as she learns of new projects.) You'll also find links about this year's wonderful poster, pictured above. It was commissioned to Marc Brown (of "Arthur" fame, among other works) and includes a line from the poem "Carrying" by U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón.
The first Poetry Friday of April this year is hosted by the lovely Margaret at Reflections on the Teche, where you'll also find the Progressive Poem. (My first year ever not participating! That's how crazy the last couple of months have been.... I look forward to reading this year's magic!)
The week after that, my good friend Jone Rush MacCulloch will be hosting. Since I'll be on the road that day and then have company all that weekend, I won't even pretend I'll get a post up for next week. But HOPEfully - after that. ;0)
May all the poetry offerings this month bring you solace, light, humor, understanding, quiet, and inspiration - whatever you most need in these challenging days in our country and world. Peace and Poetry Love to you!
