I do love diarising January in poetry – and have been especially enjoying the dual creativity of picture and poetry. (And the process of combining the two! Such fun.)
Here is this past week’s #MoPoetry2019 for your perusual of the week-that-was. Ending rather excitingly, too, I must say!
Day 18:
Day 19:
Which sparked this little conversation with @annashop_cronulla;
Day 20:
Day 21: If I thought it was bad posting a poem that doesn’t feel finished, it is worse to look back on a poem you’ve posted and find a BLATANT MISTAKE!!! Urgh! This is what happens when you become too obsessed with design and layout. (Though this is the least creative of all my Insta-Poems – but I was playing with two pictures, so… #stilltooktoolong)
I have inserted an edited version into this post – because it’s bad enough looking at the mistake every time I open my insta-page. (I decided to leave it as it was there (with a blushing comment!)… because of course I didn’t notice it until late in the day…🙄 #nobodyisperfect #iaintnobody…🙃)
Day 22:
Day 23:
Day 24: (Why, hello Good News!)
This week we’re going to Walden with Tara Smith, so join the #PoetryFriday excursion for more great posts. And pop back here next week for the final instalment of #MoPoetry2019! Looking forward to seeing what the week produces. Have a great one.
Congrats on the accolade from the Children’s Book Council and the compliments from @annashop_cronulla! Both are heart-warming 🙂

So true, Tabatha. We need moments like these. And I am rather chuffed to have spread some poetry love. (Another friend has started dabbling in poems, too. So good!)

Thank-you, Tara. The poem-a-day has been a lot of fun… but much as I love it, I think I’ll be ready to reclaim headspace, come February. 🙂

Kat, I missed a few of your dandy #InstaPoetry on Instagram so it was great fun reading them today. I am with you with little glitches found in poetry work after it is placed in a public spot and laughed with your disclosure. It’s all part of being human.

Having struggled with handwriting all my life (oh yes, I remember a ruler over the knuckles in Yr1) I find I’m a little bit of an obsessive perfectionist with anything I generate on the computer… BUT… I’m also very human! So – owned that terrible mistake!! 🙃
