Moving into the book with new ideas. This time, "Life's Seasons"
Remember to share:
Tabatha Yeatts has created a link to poems teachers and librarians can print for poetry month, titled "Poetry in The Halls". I'm grateful to be one of the poets!
Jama Rattigan has a post here with many poets' goals for April.
The Progressive Poem schedule can be found on the right!
Winter to Spring
This week, this April warmth,
I move clothes from closet
to closet, watching for that
blue and white striped summer shirt.
I haven’t worn it in years,
and Mom has been gone years, too.
She wrapped it like a gift
despite no birthday or holiday.
She managed to get to the post office,
though hardly driving anymore.
Each spring I bring it out to join
the other shirts, letting it know
it’s welcome and loved
one more season.
