tpixie Since many of these are nature words, you may love to see this book. The history behind it is incredible. It‘s a response to the Oxford Junior Dictionary omitting 40 words related to nature and instead adding technical words. The author and illustrator were saddened by the disconnect between children and childhood and nature and wrote the book with beautiful illustrations and poetry.

The Lost Words: A Spell Book

tpixie I plan on doing a post about it soon. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2015/jan/13/oxford-junior-dictionary-replaceme... (edited) 4d

Citizen Illegal | Jose Olivarez

ICE is in our small town. We usually are pretty isolated, so the community as a whole is confused and scared. Today I'm just sad.

#poetrymatters

kspenmoll I am so sorry. Keep us posted please. 😢 1mo

lil1inblue @kspenmoll Thanks. So far, they're patrolling certain neighborhoods and creating an atmosphere of fear. But I'm sure more is coming.
There were some arrests recently in communities closer to the Canadian border (I'm in Michigan's Upper Peninsula).

dabbe Beyond sad and horrific. 😤😮‍💨😢 1mo

Jari-chan 💔🕯️🙏 (I'm out of words about what's going on) 1mo

Bookwomble USA sounds like an out-and-out police state now! Stay safe ❤️ 1mo

Prayer in the Night: For Those Who Work or Watch or Weep | Tish Harrison Warren

Reminds me of lines I memorized in high school simply because they were true:
“We look before and after,
And pine for what is not:
Our sincerest laughter
With some pain is fraught;”
To a Skylark, Percy B Shelley

The Day the Music Died | Edward Gorman

I came across this poem about Ritchie Valens, and wanted to share on the anniversary of "the day the music died."
