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.

Another round of renku sessions is underway, and the current leader is being proactive about letting people know when submitted verses don't fit what's being asked for, which I find helpful. Today I learned that "mushroom" is a season word...

Date: 2015-02-23 06:25 pm (UTC)I find it useful to have some sort of a theme, even if it's unstated, for picking poems, but it's certainly not required. Just flip through your favorite collections until you said "Oh, yes, this one" enough times to fill a week.
