National Poetry Month 2024

This year for National Poetry Month, I've decided to celebrate by writing book spine poems. I figure this is a great way for me to revisit the books on my shelves and dig deep into poetry and children's literature.

Here's a sneak peak.


In the sea
on the wing
between earth and sky
light and shadow
Everything is a poem

It will be a fun month. I do hope you'll join me.

  1. Tricia, have fun writing spine poems. It takes patience to find the right book titles to turn into a poem. I do like this poem you created. It is a great start for NPM.
