Day 2 - Drawing Spices, Smelling Memories....


Welcome to Day 2 of Drawing Into Poems, my daily drawing/seeing/writing study into poetry.  You can read more about this month-long project here on my April 1 post.  Feel free to read the books with me and pull out your own sketchbook and jewelry box full of metaphor...

Day Two - Spices
Click the drawing to enlarge it.

Students - I enjoyed setting up this little still life of spices.  As I drew them, I thought about what they remind me of, and I also thought about spice memories.  Suddenly I found myself remembering Valerie Worth's poem, "sweets" from ALL THE SMALL POEMS AND FOURTEEN MORE.
