If You Need Someone...






Usually I write more here about Friday poems, but during this time (through June 12, 2020), I am instead sharing weekday writing videos for students and teachers at Keeping a Notebook and will crosspost here on Fridays.

Mary Lee is hosting today's Poetry Friday roundup over at A Year of Reading with an important reading challenge, rich, layered poems by Marilyn Chin, and news about an upcoming webinar conversation with Marilyn and Mary Lee. As for Poetry Friday, we invite everybody to join in each Friday as we share poems, poem books, poetry ideas, and friendship. Check out my left sidebar to learn where to find this poetry goodness each week of the year.

    The flowers in YOUR papermeadow have blown seeds that landed in MY notebook, where a new inky meadow has begun. I love that. I love YOU!

    “Not in rows but in whimsy” has stuck with me. I love that line. Thank you for showing me, as always, that writing grows from so so many different places. Hugs!

    I saw this on twitter, too, Amy, and love it and the sharing of it, too. We'll always have a field of flowers, right?

    Thank you for the flowers, Amy, and the wonderful reminder that flowers, like love and hope and peace, can take many forms and be shared.
