The first day of spring has passed. Easter has come and gone. This morning it snowed!
For me, the snow seemed so poetic. April is National Poetry Month. All I could think about on my way to work, driving in the snow, were some of the great poems by Robert Frost, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Ogden Nash…
There are so many wonderful writings about snow…in poetry, as well as other readings. Thinking about this reminded me of a recent book group meeting. I was reminded of how often I come across beautiful phrases while reading contemporary fiction.
With all these thoughts of poems and beautiful writing, I thought I would try to inspire you during this month of April to take notice of a poem, or even a phrase, that really speaks to you.
I am including a few photos from this morning’s snow and a quote from a reading to help inspire you to also take note of some special words during April.
Thanks for stopping by.
Remember to take pleasure in simple things, Jackie
