Happy Poetry Friday! For National Poetry Month this year, I am perusing my bookshelves and building book spine poems.
Fireflies at midnight
flicker flash
light up the night
sky magic

This week, Poetry Friday is hosted by Jone Rush MacCulloch. I hope you'll take the time to check out all things poetic being shared today.
Love this one! I see a trip to the library coming soon.
ReplyDeleteI love spin poetry! It's so much fun to try this with the kiddos at my writing programs. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is delightful - I'm SO BAD at making any kind of poetry out of spines, and you do it repeatedly, AND well!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! We don't have fireflies in Colorado, too dry. I do love them when I visit other places, "sky magic" indeed!
ReplyDelete"flicker flash"..."sky magic" Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYou keep stunning me. I want your book collection! :D
ReplyDeleteI marvel not only at your book spine poetry, Tricia, but also the collection of books you must have at the ready!
ReplyDeleteThis spine poem works so well-- fabulous job!
