Poem a day is about the same challenge-I'm trying to figure out if I want to create a challenge for myself rather than just random writing.

If you start reading the Poetry Friday blog posts toward the end of March, you might find someone doing a challenge. I think Mary Lee Hahn often does (blogs at A Year of Reading). Check her blog later in March. I'll try to let others know if I hear of anything.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-40602283713986816502014-02-22T22:20:22.108-07:002014-02-22T22:20:22.108-07:00Having great moments with family is always a reaso...Having great moments with family is always a reason for celebration!

It made me laugh thinking of all the things we are willing to try to make ourselves - "beautiful" when really we are already beautiful. <br /><br />My sister is much younger and has a high school dance tonight. She asked me to help her find the right foundation to cover her freckles. I tried to tell her that freckles are beautiful. At 13 I don't think you get this yet. Your poem reminded me of this. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing beautiful pictures and a great book to add to my future book list.<br /><br />Have a great weekend,<br />JenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-87491031997197420192014-02-22T09:37:50.096-07:002014-02-22T09:37:50.096-07:00I love your poems, Linda.
