Summer On My Mind

Hello and Happy Poetry Friday! Be sure to visit Sloth Reads for Roundup.

So... this week I spent wonderful hours with retired teachers in Blount County, Alabama and also with students at Mt. Laurel Elementary. This weekend I will be visiting Camden and Gee's Bend, as well as sharing MEET MISS FANCY Monroeville Literary Festival, in yes, Monroeville, Alabama, home of one Harper Lee! I'm excited!

Yes, I've got a new ArtSpeak: RED poem for you! This one has a summer theme, and that's probably because the weather in these parts has made a shift toward warm with high daily temps around 70 degrees. Bring on the flip flops. YAY!


Late June Afternoon
Curious cloudsare first            to whisper
Blue wavesare first            to sigh
Summer-drunk ducksare first            to splash
Red boatsare first            to fly.
