Poem: "The Map to Crossroads"

[ysabetwordsmith]

This poem was written during the May 5, 2009 Poetry Fishbowl. It was prompted by asakiyume and sponsored by janetmiles. This poem connects to several others written about "travel and exploration" this month, and you may recognize hints of them in the verses below. Also, this is the second poem this month that was sponsored later ... good poetry is like peanut

Oh, thank you! I'm so glad I decided to sponsor this one, even late.

Yay!

I'm glad you like it. Late is okay. It's nice to get a good lump sum right after the fishbowl, so I have an idea how well I did that month; but it's also nice to get unexpected money later in the month when we have no regular prospects of income.

This would work really well in a children's collection, I think.

Thank you!

I have written a few poems particularly for children, too.
