I was inspired by Jennifer Floyd’s post last week, “The Colors of My Day,” so I’ve been noticing color. However, today I opted for the beauty of black and white, which I also noticed this week.
My Week in Black and White
Black blanket dances
brilliant lights filling the sky
while Moon waits backstage
first under-blanket
morn of fall; pumpkin spice tea
latte in new mug
Specialized motor
gives me fresh legs fit to move
through sand, rocks, and time
sitting in love with
feeding birds; this ladderback
comes to sip nectar
Reading in my bed
Prose and poetry good nights
Sweet dreams on the page
On another note:
In March, Sally shared this template that she uses to record her monthly literacy life. I finally tried it for September, but I let it spill back into the whole summer, since I couldn’t really remember when I finished these books. I’ll need to start listening to some meaningful podcasts and audio books. About that speaking, though, I’m unconvinced.
