It’s the first Poetry Friday in September! Laura is hosting the round up at Author Amok.
Today I’m sharing poems from Linda Baie and Heidi Mordhurst — how they brightened my mailbox this summer!
I can’t bear to remove the turtles from my fridge. The fun thing was that Heidi found me on Facebook and had already sent the turtle poem before she saw my turtle picture there.
This wraps up all of my treasures from the poem swap. Thanks again to Tabatha for organizing all of us!
Both of those poems are like little slices of summer! So tactile. The other day, I saw fourteen turtles and two green herons around our pond. I heard later that green herons like to eat turtle eggs — seems like they picked a promising location…
Serendipity rocks a la Heidi’s turtle poem for you, Keri. Thanks for sharing my poem, but it seems a long while ago now, doesn’t it? Happy fall!
Your photo and Heidi’s poem remind me of something we saw at a Florida zoo — a turtle catching a ride by floating on a croc’s back!
That’s a brave turtle!
I love reading about the poetry swap and seeing so many Poetry Friday friends featured in every one else’s websites. 🙂
Me too! It’s like getting more than I swapped for!
Sharing Poetry Swap poems-what could be better on this early Saturday morning!
I love Heidi’s “circles of shine” and Linda’s sweating tea glasses!
Yes! Our house sweats during the night because we crank the air down so low. 🙂 It won’t be “fall” here for several more weeks!
Both so lovely!
