For April, Poetry month, still writing haiku and haiku-related poems. With a few exceptions, I've stayed with haiku. Some of us are supporting each other using the hashtag #digipoetry. Join us.

rumbling,
rumbling rain -

Otto The Owl Who Loved Poetry - written and
illustrated by Vern Kousky
I
found this at a recent bookstore visit, sat down and read it on the spot. Poor
Otto keeps sharing poetry, and receives nothing but “hoots” at his performance.
But one night, there is applause, and Otto finally gets the positive attention
he deserves. It’s a lovely story, including some well-known poetry with sweetly
soft illustrations, a good one to add to your “poetry love” shelf.
three marvelous books to “see”, poetic words to
read, in English and in Spanish
