Did you see the holiday e-poetry collection, Gift Tag? It was compiled by Sylvia Vardell and Janet Wong. I'm so happy to be in this work with other poets who write for children. Each entry was motivated by an image. You might click and purchase the book for yourself and gift it to others for just $2.99. It's spot on for little ones and older readers. Gift Tag is full of holiday memories, thoughts, and wishes you'll want to read again and again. You will love it! As a teaser, here's my entry. Happy Poetry Friday!
Tucked Between Branches
A green puff swirls
Like angel hair
Golden eyes
wink
Beside warm
white lights
A round belly
bulges
Like a plump
ornament
My Christmas
tree troll
Curls a smile
And reaches out
to me
