Day 33
House Plant
Sometimes, I don’t even know the name,
this plant growing in a pot on the shelf by the old phone–
should I give it a name, like my pet?
it’s always there and doesn’t neglect
to calm my mind, and I do find
that both comfort me when I feel alone.
What brings comfort to you?
About this post:
Be safe out there. Find ways to help yourself, your family, and others keep going! We can do this together!
April is time for NaPoWriMo — National Poetry Writing Month, try a bit of poetry and art to encourage others to be safe with each other. Something short. Something inclusive. Something of spring and hope. #NaPoWriMo/#GloPoWriMo
The Academy of Poets encourages us to write #shelterinpoems. Get some ideas there and share your own.
Tons of information can be found at Poets.org: National Poetry Month and here: Virtual Programs.
National Council of Teachers of English also offers suggestions here.
