Poetry Friday, Week 33:  Summer Poetry Swap from Denise Krebs

8/18/2022

Welcome to Dave who's hosting at  Leap of Dave.

​

I highly encourage the Poetry Friday community to participate in Tabatha's Yeatts poetry swaps. She does a winter and summer one.  A few weeks ago, I received a lovely envelope with these two poems.  I love writing about the birds in my neighborhood so these were fun to get. And having been to Denise Kreb's neck of the woods (or desert) last September is was great to see the landscape again. Denise was kind enough to include crocheted dish rags (which remind me of the color of the hummingbirds), tea, and dark chocolate.

Thanks to Molly at Nix the Comfort Zone for hosting today. 
It's really great to be back.  June and July zipped by me.  Part of the time  I was in Ireland and Scotland.  I am still processing the trip and can't believe I've been home almost a month. What a month it's been!  I have news.

Summer Poetry Swap, 2022

Picture
Thanks to Tabatha, each summer welcomes the Summer Swap of poetry.  One of the favorite places in the world for me is the Grand Canyon. And  Patricia kicked off the season with these wonderful haiku.
​
layered bands, compressed
remains of Panagea
carved over eons

​canyon colors, rise

desert sun sinks into time
​nature's memory
​
Picture
pastel pink and gold
a day yawns, remebering
sandstone lullabies

how many lingered
in awe of earth's majesty
prayer of gratitude

Three years ago, Klaire Lockhart and Aaron Packard, wanted to host an  art exhibit in their community of Vermillion, SD comprised of artists from all over the country.

I submitted two photos and the mixed media piece, "Coda". They were accepted into the show.  

The artwork will be professionally printed and wheat-pasted to the exterior of No. 7 Center Gallery, and the images will be included in an online exhibition hosted by packardgroupllc.com. The opening reception will occur on Final Friday, August 26th, 2022 at No. 7 Center Gallery, 7 Center St., Vermillion, SD. All selected artwork will be projected as a drive-in movie. The exhibition of 8x10” prints will be on display from August 26th through September 23rd, 2022.

I am so excited to be included and when the online link becomes available, I will share.
