#2021NPM April 6: Sun/Grian

​
Welcome to 2021 National Poetry Month. It's my fifteenth year of participating (some years better than others).  
This year I'm taking a look at some previous poems that I enjoyed and will be revising.  Some have been on the blog before and others not.  
I have  five great interviews lined up:
April 2 POETRY FRIDAY: ALLAN WOLF
April 9 POETRY FRIDAY: LISA FIPPS
April 16 POETRY FRIDAY: CHRIS BARON
April 23 POETRY FRIDAY: JOANNE ROSSMASSLER FRITZ
April 30 POETRY FRIDAY: LITA  JUDGE

I love getting books into the hands of readers so there will be prizes for stopping by and saying hi.

Grian
flùr
miasach buidhe
​an aghaidh speur gorm
feòragan a’ dealbhadh foghar fogharaich

And because there were challenges in the translation, it now says in Scottish Gaelic: 
Sun

sun
flower
yellow plates
against blue sky
squirrels planning autumn harvest
