The Journey #NationalPoetryMonth



It is April, and I am joining many others in celebrating National Poetry Month. This month many people turn to their gardens and landscapes and play in the dirt. I'd rather do a little playing with words. This month I will be creating found poems by taking words, phrases, and lines from other texts and rearranging them into a "literary collage" with a whole new meaning.


A day with...
small acts of kindness
can lead to 
a strong spirit
for the miles ahead.

Here we go!


And the Progressive Poem continues...

  1. Oh, this is really nice, Leigh Anne. I keep thinking of your poems & wonder if you've collected a huge box of words? Or are there scraps everywhere? What a strange journey we are on with this Pandemic. And what a nice one with April poetry!
