Thank you for bringing me back to those wonderful lines from Chaucer. Community projects seem to announce themselves more often than I expect. :-)

It's like summer camp for writers, gathering this way, but with comfortable beds and no biting insects. ⛺️ It's a pleasure for me, too.

Thanks for doing this, Tara. I enjoyed listening to several of the selections when you were posting them in the Notes the other day and am looking forward to working my way through the rest.

I’ve got your post on my TBR, too … as soon as my daughter and I finish assembling some furniture. Argh. I warned her this is not my bailiwick, but we’re getting there… slowly. A little Nature stacking will be good for the blood pressure. 🙄 🌲🌲⛅️

This is perfect, Tara. Thank you so much. I am spending this cool and rainy Saturday morning in pajamas, sipping tea, and reading words of hyacinth to feed my soul.

Perfect! I am spending the day assembling furniture. “Just like Legos,” I told my daughter. So far, so good. I need to quit soon and listen to poems. :-) Tea and pj’s sound good, too. ☺️

Thank you for listening and sharing, Donna. I’m always grateful these projects find their own “right size.” When they get too big, I’ll have to change things. For now, every wonderful poem can have its own spotlight.

These are wonderful, Tara. Thank you for making it happen. If you do it again, I nominate “Happiness” by Jane Kenyon.
