We are drawing near the end of our first homeschool year.
Looking Ahead
Mary Saunders
A poem by former Boerne, Texas resident, Mary Saunders (1836-1912).
“Calling Dreams” by G.D. Johnson
I had a bit of a busy weekend, so despite the fact that I had started working on this post yesterday, it didn't get finished.
Langston Hughes
I can't let National Poetry Month go by without sharing at least one poem by Mr. Langston Hughes.
Haiku
For today's selection, I thought I'd share a couple of traditional haiku's that have been translated into English.
“Alphabet Poem” by Edward Lear
The Abecedarian as an "ancient poetic form guided by alphabetical order."
“If—” by Rudyard Kipling
As someone who is interested in poetry, and writes poetry, I'm embarrassed to admit that, once again, National Poetry Month is upon us and escaped my notice. Until now.
It’s Available!!
I'm a little late with my announcement—but that's okay.
Book Recommendation
When I decided to homeschool, I came across a checklist of "60 Poetry Teatime Favorites" from the They Call Me Blessed website. A Child's Garden of Verses just happened to be the first book on the list.
Botanical Garden
My sister and I went to the Botanical Garden today.
