We are getting so close to 500 Poetry Pantries! That is a lot of poetry appreciation! We are so glad you are here. We couldn't do it without you!
Autumn is so gorgeous, with its vibrant flaming colours. We hope your Muse is inspired by all the beauty, flaming brightly before succumbing to winter greys. I love crunching through the leaves, happy as a pumpkin! And I love coming upon the pumpkins themselves, grinning on doorsteps, and other unexpected places, like cliff edges, trees, and driftwood.
We have another good week lining up at Poets United. Did you catch Sanaa's Wild Friday? I love the whole idea of Wild Fridays, needless to say! On Monday, in my Life of a Poet series, we will get to know Ron. Lavalette a little better. Ron writes at Scrambled, Not Fried. And on Wednesday, Susan's Midweek prompt will be The Food We Eat. Cool.
The theme for Magaly's next interactive Moonlight Musings (on Friday October 18th) will be "The Positive Side of Change", an exploration of the ways in which change can be a good thing, for writing and for living. That sounds interesting!
Today, let's dive into the Pantry ~ top up your coffee, settle in, and let's enjoy some lovely poetry.
Good morning, poetry pals. It is twenty minutes past the witching hour here, and my eyes popped open to see if you were here. And you ARE, yay! I am so looking forward to morning, when I will enjoy each of your offerings, like a kid with a Christmas stocking.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, everyone. What intriguing pumpkin photos, Sherry, to get us in the October mood. It has really turned cold here, and I am not sure that I am ready. Brrrr!!
ReplyDeleteGood day, everyone!
ReplyDeleteit's almost midnight over here, i will be back to read later. :)
I have been laying out all night watching the Orionids. A bit of poetry and then sleep.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! Stars, poetry and sleep. Perfection!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sky on that first picture. And I would love to find pumpkins in the woods. :-)
ReplyDeletePumpkins make me happy and these images are perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love this pictures, Sherry. I'm always taken by how autumn seems to try to give us an extra fix of color, so that we can survive winter. Susan upcoming prompt sounds very appetizing. It will be a hospital day for me, but I think I will cook something for it anyway.
ReplyDeleteHappiest Sunday, everyone!
Hope your hospital day is good, kiddo.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving, by the way, to our Canadian members, of which I am one. Smiles. I am making a batch of chunky chili for a potluck with friends. The sun is shining and life is bee-yoo-tee-ful!
Looking forward to reading Ron's feature on Monday. I've always been impressed with and inspired by his poetry. :)
ReplyDeleteThe fall skies have some of the best colors of the year. The first picture shares the glory of nature.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday and to my Canadian friends - I hope you are enjoying your Thanksgiving weekend. Love and peace...
ReplyDeleteThanks, True. A few of us plan a beans and rice potluck tomorrow. No critters will be harmed in the making of the meal. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderful kind of potluck! Happy Thanksgiving.
DeleteHello and hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteI started visiting and commenting and will return Monday to finish enjoying these amazing poets.
