Happy Friday!
I love a poetry swap. This year, I knew I'd be summer traveling. So, I signed up for only ONE swap. And, what a swap it has been.
Jone Rush McCulloch and I are poets, children's librarians, and new-ish to the art of mixed-media collage. We have fun writing and making art independently and together. I was thrilled to summer swap with her.

Another star for you, and from Scotland, too, is a special swap, Linda. Lovely to respond with a poem. I love the word, "friendlight".
ReplyDeleteYou and Jone are perfect swap partners! It must have been in the stars! :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, this post makes my heart happy! I love the blue star from Scotland...and Jone's thoughtfulness. This community is so special. xo
ReplyDeleteYou and Jone both spread friendlights with your art.
ReplyDeleteHow fun that you turned Jone's gift into a poem - gifts that keep giving!
ReplyDeleteJone's treasures - and yours! And Scotland! And "Friendlight"! My heart overfloweth. And it wishes you a Happy Birthday (... at least, word on the PF Street is you've had a birthday this week?) Thanks for always giving the rest of us gifts!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a blue star from Scotland and friendlight--lovely images!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! I missed the sign up for the swap, but I hope to do it next time it comes around!
ReplyDeleteSo fun! I love the "friendlight to see by!"
ReplyDeleteWhat fun to have this Star from Scotland, poem and all! And your glowing "Friendlight" response, thanks for sharing all Linda!
ReplyDeleteYou and Jone are superstars, Linda! You both shine bright. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing these special gifts. Loved "Friendlight to see by!"
ReplyDeleteLinda, sistar! You are inspiring me with your words of the year and the magic you find in them (ox and star). I love that Jone honored you with this gift and that you wrote about it. I love the rhyming and this line: "Star of tartan moors and thistle grand"
ReplyDeleteLinda, we are in Cape Mary lapping up every rolling wave. I am sorry that it took me so long to respond. May the friendlight brighten all your days. Poetry swaps are true poetic gifts.
