This month I used my notebook almost daily to record a #gratiku. These are the last ten. (Two days on one two-page spread). If you click on each photo, the haiku is as a caption. (except two) #gratiku I missed two days all month. Not bad. 
Thanks to Carol at Carol’s Corner for hosting our post Thanksgiving Poetry Friday.
A couple of times a month, I participate with a group of women in the "Mud Puddle". We write for an hour on one or two prompts. Last Saturday, I was introduced to Pat Schneider, poet and teacher.
This poem came from watching a short video about her. Come In, Come In by Jone Rush MacCulloch Come in, come in the tea is cozied ready to sip We sit on the porch Come in, come in We eat toasted, buttered biscuits mittened hands around steamy mugs Come in, come in squirrels chitter for the crumbs in trees above Come in, come in We talk of daily records reminding us been here before - Viet Nam Come in, come in allow me to hold your pain, catch your breath ©2020 (draft) Let's Welcome 2021 with a Poetry Postcard
Did you know there are 35 days until 2020 ends? Woohoo! Let's celebrate the New Year with a New Year Postcard? In Japan, it’s called Nengajo, a Japanese custom of ushering in the new year. Please join the party. It will be fun!

This week's #gratiku focused on autumn images. I like to photograph images when I walk. I've discovered I like to use the images as inspiration for my notebook pages.
