"I reach, I try to meet their songs halfway"

Liz - I adore this...no matter how you got it together. It is lovely. As this is the third I've read today, I was wondering how one went about beginning. A great challenge!

Happy Poetry Friday!

Thank you so much, Amy. This form is a puzzle -- but a fun one!

Ah, this is so lovely. I especially adore that wild wishing and child's play. What good would our lives be without those?

without answer, promise, sweet cliché...
It sounds unrequited, but it's answered, and I ADORE that. *sigh*

See, you're right. But I don't know if I even knew that!

"The things that last like birdsong, on and on?
Those things are us, at least another day"

Yes! Especially if we put those things into poetry, and share them.

Oh, and who's the Ninja here? You're doing our assignment AND your own all month!

[liz_scanlon]

Haikus are manageable though!

I would love to be a Ninja Princess. Just saying.

And I adore your poem! XO
