 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?

Those little partiers are my favorites! What energy in your post. Can't wait to celebrate in April. 3/19/2021 06:32:31 am
Love that 'flash mob', Jone. I agree, the birds are busy! And I'm happy you found that first bloom. Nothing here yet, but maybe when the snow is melted? Your Poetry Month goals are very enticing! It's going to be a special month! 3/19/2021 06:43:45 am
What a delightful poem about bushtits. What a funny name, so just that arouses interest from the beginning. And Flash-mob just adds to it. I enjoy your haiku! 3/19/2021 08:21:38 am
I, too, love your bushtits poem, Jone, but hummingbirds are my favorite birds. We don't have them in Switzerland so poems that show them 'dart' and 'sip' make me happy. :) 3/19/2021 04:37:54 pm
Lovely menagerie of bird poems and tidbits Jone. I looked up the Bushtits too, and they are little balls of fluff, they remind me of a baby chick. Love the apt call to the Junco's. And what an inviting National Poetry Month lineup you have, thanks for all!

Jone, that flashmob image is going to stick with me. So perfect! Thank you for your delightful poems. 3/21/2021 05:44:49 am
These are fun little moments, Jone! I'm looking forward to your April interviews, and I must say your MudPuddle Saturdays sound delightful. Leave a Reply. |
