The Taste of Poetry

     Tomorrow — a confluence of events. Easter Sunday and the beginning of poetry month. Perhaps that sounds like an unlikely  pairing, but both are joyous, filled with hope and expectations. The day promises to be sunny. Our tulips have pushed their way through the winter ground, our snow has melted, and spring anxiously awaits backstage to dance. 
     Thousands of gardeners read seed catalogues and garden shops begin to open. 

     And thousands of poets welcome this celebration of poets and poetry. 

     And for the fifth year I’ll take part in the month long poetry challenge— a prompt a day. 

Psalm 96:1-2 “Sing to the LORD a new song; Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Sing to the LORD, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.”
