A tisket, a tasket, a yellow picnic basket...

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.

\o/ Enjoying comm stuff counts as something special & awesome in my book -- thank you for adding in your two cents!

I dare you to do both challenges this week - I think you'd enjoy them, and I'd be especially fascinated to see what you'd do with #4.

And Now, For Something Completely Different: your icon is win!tastic.

I dare you to do both challenges this week

We shall see - I'm kind of enjoying lurking and commenting randomly, and the moving is eating my time. Then again, I would like to make some space for myself and poetry. We shall see.

I love Picard. He is my hero. Also, Patrick Stewart. I saw him in the Scottish Play in real life, it was the best birthday ever.

I would do many a silly thing for the chance to see Patrick Stewart perform live. What a fabulous memory to have!

As for the challenges, they might be quicker to do than you might think, but you know best what works for you time-wise et al. I'm enjoying your comments when you have the time to make them. :o)

Above & beyond fabulous! I love reading your explanations of why particular posts / poems speak to you, and will definitely take that into account when I revise the Featured Posts section in April. :o)
