April is national poetry month

 Greetings!


I have rediscovered this lost treasure that I hope to nurture and grow again.

Today, all I have to share is the poster celebrating April as National Poetry Month

https://poets.org/sites/default/files/2024-01/2024%20NPM%20Poster_final.pdf

and an excerpt from Lucille Clifton's poem Blessing the Boats:

    and may you

        in your innocence

            sail

                through

                        this

                            to

                                that.

Mr. and Mrs.Wilson

Marriage is such an old institution

Some days it feels so outdated and contrived

Yet you lay next to your loved one, wondering its the value


Until you turn over and they are gone

Feeling adrift and bereft-- like you have lost a part of your soul....
