My daily practice of posting audio blogs and six-word memoirs for my online campaign “30 Days of Poetry, Jazz, and Earth Day Awareness” has been happening on Twitter and Facebook. Today, I decided to post links for the period of April 14 to April 23 on my author blog. Enjoy!
What are your favorite poems from my collection of audio blogs?
Are you reading any poetry and jazz this month?
How did you honor Mother Earth on Earth Day?
Do you have plans to honor Mother Earth every day?
Oh yeah, please share any six-word memoirs you have! I am going to post all of the ones I wrote so far this weekend!
Enjoy your weekend!
