I've been working on some little art projects. I found some quotes about snow and winter for golden shovels.
Silent Salsa the moon could be breaking apart -Linda Pastan From Blizzard A starry, brittle night. The snow-people gaze at the moon. The snow-people wonder how they could dance a salsa on snowfields and be festive without music breaking the ice fields apart ©Jone Rush MacCulloch I think Linda Pastan is a poet whose work I want to read more.

Oh, that collage is fabulous! And a lovely golden shovel. I have a silly dancing snowman poem, not as mysterious as yours or Linda's, at https://www.laurasalas.com/writing-for-children/poem-titles/

Jone, your collage is such a dreamy one with a poem to dazzle a winter night. Congratulations on the upcoming reading. Unfortunately, I will not be available to listen to the online reading. Best of luck and thank you for the Poem Exchange again this year.

I like Pastan's poems whenever I see one, Jone. This is a delight & an apt 'wondering' by those Snowpeople. Could a salsa heat things up too much?

Howdy, Jone - I hope the reading went wonderfully! I'm sorry to have missed it because of a schedule conflict. Love your playful post today - the little collage has so much movement in it! And what could be more fun than salsa-ing snow-people?!

PS - I hate to miss the New Year's swap this year, but we're in the midst of a local mini-move getting our house ready to list, before the bigger move in a couple-few months. I'm barely treading water at the moment! xo ;0)

I love the snow people dancing. They must be some resilient snow people to be dancing the salsa without melting away. Great image!
