I am working on a poem to add to this page....stay tuned. I love, LOVE the links I can go off to explore. You are the best!
Don't know which to read first, Tabatha. What a wonderful list of poets writing about poets!
Thanks for compiling this list! Will enjoy clicking through and reading. :)
Thank you for compiling this wonderful list, Tabatha. I'm bookmarking so I can come back and read. I've sent you a couple of mine via email.
Such a great list... I'll have to have look to see if I can find any others.
Wow! You're creating a really fabulous resource with this list! I can't wait to explore!
Such a great list. I read a couple and am definitely going to bookmark this and come back and read some others. I know I have written some too, but will have to go back through my work and find them.
You are one of the best mensches of the kidlit poetry world. What a wonderful collection! Thanks!
Thank you so much, Tabatha for this amazing list of mentor text. The poem I created based on a mentor text is at my blog: https://beyondliteracylink.blogspot.com/2015/08/august-afternoon.html. August Morning by Albert Garcia. My poem modeled on Garcia's is called August Afternoon. I can't remember if I signed up for the Summer Swap but I do want to join in at my usual 3xs rate.
Thank you for this list. I was surprised to find my own poem here! Thank you for including it. I've bookmarked the page to come back to.
What a wonderful list, Tabatha. Here is a link to a poem I wrote for my granddaughter that was inspired by the rhyming picture book Remarkably You by Pat Miller. http://kimberlyhutmacherwrites.blogspot.com/2019/03/poetry-friday-remarkably-you-by-pat.html
Thanks for including me! I have lots more, but no time right now to go mining. I'll put it on my June to-do list if that's not too late!
I have not written a poem about a poet--yet, but I love this page that collects them. Thank you for gathering this resource to come back to again and again.
You do have me on the Summer Poetry Swap, yes? Hi
I was inspired by a line from an interview with Naomi Shihab Nye. You can find it here on my blog! https://wonderingandwondering.wordpress.com/2019/05/30/borrowing-a-line-from-nsn-poetryfriday/
Hi Tabatha. I do write some ( maybe, even silly) rhyme about hand embroidery.Would love to share one of my first ones:
If you are lazy and you know it,
Clap your hands! ( Nothing wrong with that! I am many times. 😀)
If you are not a fan of big knots and loops,
Clap your hands!
( Who is not pressed for time and patience? 😅)
If you enjoy easy stitching,
Whether outlines, borders or fillings,
Yet, if you want a fabulous result,
Clap your hands!
--> Clap your hands, 'coz The Running Stitch Family has it all! The stitches are super easy and simple. There are traditional embroidery forms that depend only on the Running Stitch and it's variations, like Sashiko, Kantha, Kasuti and Blackwork, to name a few. You can do outlines, fillings, borders with ease! Try these stitches.
