Spring Calls, Winter Answers
It's Poetry Friday, and Tanita David is hosting HERE on her blog, {fiction, instead of lies}, bringing us to thoughts about freedom, being "discharged and disentangled". I'm planning to post it on the wall by my desk! Thanks for the special words and for hosting, Tanita!

Poetry Friday - Make A Choice
Welcome to Poetry Friday!
FYI - I will be at the bookstore until 6 pm, often don't get home until close to 7. Will start reading in the evening!
I'm looking forward to your posts!
Though I'm posting this on Leap Day, it's time to "March" on! When I signed up for this date, I thought I would write about spring. Yet, with the continuing turmoil in the world, I thought I'd prefer to write about choices. How are you choosing to change the world, perhaps only in 'your' world? It's hard to see the many needs and wonder if one little person can affect them. I imagine ripples spreading when one stone is thrown. Is it true? Can one stone make a difference? I hope that it can!

Acrostic Moment
Could you take a moment now,
Hasten to own a world of wishes
Overlook the list--laundry, dusting, working late--
Install ‘be kind’ and ‘listen well’?
Could you look beyond and fasten
Everyone’s lives to part of yours?

Poetry Friday - Heartbreak
It's Poetry Friday, and Tabatha Yeasts is hosting HERE on her blog, The Opposite of Indifference. No matter what other wonderful words she posts, I know I'll love the quote at the top! Thanks for hosting, Tabatha!

Johnny Loved Miss Jones, His Teacher
Johnny was smitten the first day of school.
Upset, he soon learned there was a rule
that six-year-olds needed to grow up first.
He really thought his heart would burst.
Miss Jones could never be his date.
Sad Johnny had to wait and wait.
Throughout his schooling, he kept in mind
this first heartbreak, and, now resigned,
he searched and found a new love true.
To all the memories, he said “adieu”.
This time, grown up, he found a match:
she taught first grade, a perfect catch.

I host next week's Poetry Friday. March is Denver's snowiest month, but also
welcomes spring and Daylight Savings Time! Are you wishing anything special for
March?
