Hello Poets,
I am away from my writing table and in one of my favorite places -- visiting family. I return home Sunday and set my alarm for Monday morning--time to report to work. There are hundreds of rising sixth graders ready to learn about their new school. Wheeeee!
In the meantime, here is haiku inspired by this amazing pic posted on Twitter. I've also added to Star's padlet. https://padlet.com/mitchellhubeimom/4bzbfu2cg5k7awk5

Finally, thanks to https://www.marcieatkins.com/ for hosting our round-up this week. I cannot tell you the number of poets and writers I have referred to her website for writing tips and support. She's kind of amazing!
This is gorgeous -- the wing, the words, especially the idea of this being a "transparent cathedral pane."
ReplyDeleteWow, the school year has suddenly just... arrived for so many! We're a few weeks away yet here - but wow, where did this summer go!? May you have an uplifting year.
Love your glittering "glazier," that fits the dragonfly–so many opalescent colors their catching that fire. Enjoy your family weekend, thanks Linda!
ReplyDeleteI love this! So beautiful!
ReplyDeletetransparent cathedral pane! gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat image and the juxtaposed haiku provide a balance quite befitting. You have done great work with this special blending of word and image, Linda.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a stunning photo! It is a transparent cathedral pane. Enjoy your travels, Linda.
ReplyDeleteLinda, the photo is a work of art and to think it is a work of nature. Your poems capture the content so beautifully. Your star poem spins its own tale: Daughters can also be heroic. Enjoy your weekend. School starts??? My granddaughter starts K on the 22nd.
ReplyDeleteOooh, cathedral pane! Love that--and, yes, a stunning image. Thank you, and happy visiting, Linda!
ReplyDeleteWhat, Linda?!? How can you be back at school so soon? Or are you doing extra Media Specialist weeks? Loooove your glazier haiku, and I miss you!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I'm glad you got to spend your last summer hours with family. Blessings with those new sixth graders. Those haiku are gorgeous and the photo that inspired them. I love thinking of a glazier working on those cathedral windows. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat photo is absolutely stunning and your accompanying haiku are lovely, too--I am especially partial to the cathedral pane imagery. I hope you've enjoyed your visiting and are off to a wonderful start--though my mind boggles at how AUGUST 1st can be a start date!
