Happy Poetry Friday and Spring! Michelle Kogan hosts the Poetry Roundup today, featuring spring poems from the latest edition of The Best of Today's Little Ditty.
The old blown egg idea came to me last
week, probably in anticipation and hope for spring here in the
Northeast. Also because we’ve been enjoying eggs from our daughter’s
chickens, and somehow I look at each egg less casually since I know the
effort that produced it – both the hen’s and our daughter’s!
solitude
embryo sheltering
in place
enlightenment
first sunlight streaming
through pecked hole
My hope is that those who are at home will find ways to embrace solitude in these unusual days, and that those who are out there working for the good of all of us will be protected and
safe.
