POPO2023 Day 31

This is the final day of the Poetry Postcard Festival Sharing of the 31 postcards with poems sent out.  But stay tuned, everyone.  There will be some bonus posts that carry over into November.  There will be the two that I sent to Alexandra and Kerfe.  There will also be the post with a photo of all of the wonderful cards I received (image side only,) along with a cento poem, which will be composed of at least one line from each received poem.

31 Kristin Nielsen Seurat Rainbow 1883Georges Seurat, “Rainbow”

The anniversary of your passing
finds me stumbling to the river
where we whiled away
many summer afternoons.
Stone lifts from my chest
as I see you there
once again.

  3. This was a really impressive series of poems, Lisa. The concept of your cento poem sounds quite intriguing as well!
