Oh What a Month….

Thank you to the Slice of Life community. This was my first year slicing and it was so meaningful. Thank you to the creators for this space that gathers teachers, writers and lovers of words. Thank you to all the slicers who put your thoughts out into the world so honestly. I was inspired by you and learned so much from you. Because of your posts, I tried out new prompts and new types of writing. On what a great month it has been!

I wrote for all 31 days! I went into this with no expectations- just write when I could but then the community kept me returning to read and write each day. So to honor my first year as a slicer, I made a list poem of my blog’s titles from 1st to 31st.

Can’t hold that much joy!

Calmed and renewed,

bravo to the bouquet

my world went monochrome

worry….doze….worry….doze

the candy jar falls in defeat

a question that stuck

10 things I’ve been meaning to say to Alaska…

oh sun, you are a trickster

ode to maple trees

bullseye- huzzah!

pinball soul tune

finally a winter foray

morning grumbles

fortunately, I now have inspiration

a few of my favorite things

lucky me

a birthday itself is the true gift

my best colors

songs of my life

really, it’s a gift?

come out and enjoy the day

recipe for a happy mom’s heart

which movie is it?

traditions tether us forever

student gift + word play= math poems

Spring haiku hunt

can email be poetry?

applaud the ordinary

yesterday, today, tomorrow

oh what a month!!
