#2021NPM Three Poems

4/29/2021

 
I have been taking classes in mixed media through Jennifer Chamberlin.  She had a two part class, Night Watch.  I also committed to sending out three "art poetry postcards" for National Poetry Month. So I combined the two.  This week has been the pink supermen which influenced my haiku.

I am laughing at myself because when I shared collage books with students, I always said I would never do collage because of the time.  Guess what?  I think this extremely relaxing.

Tomorrow: Poetry Friday and Lita Judge will be sharing her thoughts about her new book, THE WISDOM OF TREES.

Hop on over to Linda at TeacherDance. She share a surprise late snow storm and thoughts on 'time'.j

Last week, I went on a field trip to one of my favorite wineries.  I was able to photograph a single first bloom. On the weekend, I discovered busyness in the hanging planter.  It was also MudPuddle Saturday(a group of women write about twice a month), I was able to draft a couple poems based on prompts.

Winter’s scent
outside my window
questions us,When is spring?
Hummingbirds dart, sip nectar
the fairy flowers

Bushtits Gather
Little partiers, the bushtits
gather at the suet block
The high scratchy calls
twitter-tweet  the location
A flash mob hangs upside down,
dining.  All are welcome.
