Poetry Friday, Week 48: December Haiku and Announcements

12/2/2022

Welcome to Poetry Friday.  It's December? Just wow!  Catherine at Reading to the Core is hosting us today.
I am writing a small poem every day in December.

The Poeming Pigeon Book Launch Part II

Picture

 We have 12 poets reading and there will also be featured artwork from several artists in various slideshows. 
Featured Poets: Amelia Diaz Ettinger • Emmett Wheatfall • Leanne Grabel • Anne Richardson • Rebecca Smolen • Eileen McGurn • Jone Rush MacCulloch • Sue Fagalde Lick • M.F. McAuliffe • Dale Champlin • Ann Farley • Carter McKenzie
Here’s the link for registration:
https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZItce6grj0uGtM9iv1mC4LkrDY19wNhS5bB
 (Once registered, you will receive a link from Zoom. Then on the day of the show, simply use the link that was sent to you to join about 5 minutes before the show starts so we can start on time).  There will be a “waiting room” and Shawn will start admitting people in order of arrival a few minutes before the show. She'll review “zoom etiquette” with the audience after I welcome everyone, so they know how the show will proceed and how to use the chat room / speaker view / how to “applaud” / muting microphones during the reading, etc. I will also formally introduce each of you before you read.

I am excited to be reading.

2023 New Year Poetry Postcard Sign Ups

Won't you join us? Sign up for the 2023 New Year Postcard Exchange.  Send five, send ten or send to all. Did you know there are 30 days until 2022 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.​How It Works:
  • Choose to send five, ten postcards.
  • Create a postcard:  you can buy a postcard and write a poem on the other side or you can create one postcard to send to everyone (I use Walgreens or Zazzle)
  • Once you get the names, send by February 1, 2023 (during the Chinese New Years)
  • If you choose, you can work in the Chinese animal for 2023: The year of the Water Rabbitt. It is not required.

Congratulations on the book! I love that you're writing a small poem every day in December. I was just thinking what a powerful practice that is, and I'll look forward to reading more of yours. I'm still on the fence about sending postcards, but really appreciate that you coordinate this every year. Thanks!

Molly,
I understand about the postcards. Remember you can send just five of them.

Wow, Jone! A plethora of projects. It's been many, many years since I had a root canal but your haiku brought it all back.

Congratulations on The Poeming Pigeon! What a great title. Sorry you had to have a root canal (the worst!). Hope the birds at the feeder distracted you while you were recovering!
