poetree | Sunday Picnic amongst the Fae

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

I have *two* posts to share this week. *beams*

One is a poem I wrote about autumn light, memories, and trauma (though the trauma bit is there, and could be triggery, I tried to go light on the imagery there and instead focus on the emotions): What is it about autumn light

ETA: And there's a lovely follow-up to my poem in the comments by

The second is a post some about a job working for a poet and some about my favorite poem by him, as he passed away this summer. I've been meaning to post it for awhile, but as his 97? 98? birthday would have been coming up soon, I got nudged to post it. Don't be put off by the title: Like virtue
