Fireworks over East Village - New York City |
Greetings, friends. Hope all is well with each of you in your part of the world. We here in the US will be celebrating our Independence Day on Tuesday. This means parades, fireworks, family barbecues, etc. Do some of the rest have a special holiday that you celebrate around this time of year?
Hope you all have read Rosemary's feature which preceded this one. She features a wonderful Neruda poem "Tonight I Can Write (the Saddest Lines)." After reading this poem and her write-up, I definitely want to read some Neruda.
And thank you to all of you who participated in Sumana's prompt "War and Peace" this past Wednesday.
Sherry is featuring poems by three wonderful poets on Monday. Please stop by.
We welcome Susan back again this week for Midweek Motif with her prompt "independence." Hopefully the theme will trigger a poem in each of you.
And now with no further delay, let's share poetry. Link your poem below. Stop in and say hello. Then visit other poets who post. Looking forward to seeing you on the trail!
