And Colleen's completes the circle with hope. Such a good read.

What struck me, and delight me too, is the process, the how and why in crafting the poems.<br />The title of Kim's poem is so lovely, so apt in today's confusing and confused world. And to think the poem was birthed from a prompt!<br />Homesickness can be a strong motivator, so it is no surprise that i enjoyed Linda's poem.<br />Colleen's poem is so "American". Every word makes you think of the Indigenous Peoples.<br />Thank you, ladies (including Sherry), for these lovely poems. :)<br /><br />dsnake1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08724264906690080704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-29597093162073984782019-08-14T09:56:04.686-04:002019-08-14T09:56:04.686-04:00I love mourning with bluebells and violets where a...I love mourning with bluebells and violets where a nightingale might sing yet and the mockingbird in the pink light of dawn making our hearts soar.
