many books
speak of the one way–
what is real?
close your eyes
and listen to what you see–
try to remember
This year I participated in POPO the August POetry POstcard Fest–where the challenge is to send a different postcard with a poem you’ve composed for each day in August, 31 in all. This is the second installment, with cards 3 and 4.
I decided to do shadormas, as they would fit easily on the back of a postcard, and to connect them through repeating part of the last line of each poem to the first line of the poem for the next day. The last line of the poem from day 2 was “to fill many books”
remember
the interior
spiraling
while the out
side remined calm, in
visible, rooted
You can see cards 1 and 2 here. To be continued…

Wish I knew of this at the time! Perhaps you posted about it but I missed it. Looking forward Kerfe.

It happens every year. You can sign up for next year now, but I will also post a reminder next summer. I didn’t find out about it until the last minute, which is when I signed up.

Thanks Jane. Its a fun and easy way to exchange both art and poetry. I did a month’s worth so I will keep posting them from time to time. I’m working on a new batch, so if you want one, let me know.

The birdlings seem to be appropriate for many occasions.

As are birds. It’s hard to think of any situation where a bird or two wouldn’t be a good addition.

It’s like reading a serialized story (in a way). Very cool.
