• Here’s to new challenges: Sunday Whirls

  

  I love challenges. This one is a new one I found reading someone else’s work. Excited even though I know myself all too well! The first one will be a bust in the obedience department; the second one will hit the mark but maybe not the movement of the first. I can say to you…

• April is Poetry Month

  

  That’s it. That’s the post. 😂 Seriously though. I began to write poems before I learned to write anything else. I penned my very first poem in 1st grade, and gave it to my friend. It was an acrostic of her name Neisha (a white chick, would you believe it?) in couplet form. I don’t…
