A quick poem written on the theme of #Wonder for #NationalPoetryDay

A poem written by Francesca L Rolle:
I will pluck a star from the sky,
To drop into one of your eyes,
So that you can see the world in two halves,
One through a lens of starlight,
And the other,
Through the sun,
So that you will never be afraid of the dark,
And you will always follow the wonder of the rising dawn.

"Take a glass Raise it high & remember— Some of us don’t have homes to return to. Houses burn, continents drift. Forests fall under city sprawl & where once there was memory pavement cracks." Check out my latest poem in @kaleidotrope.bsky.social 🦢

#LitMagWeek This isn’t really a throwback because @stanchion.bsky.social isn’t out of print, just not making new issues. I (Kristin) was a subscriber for a while and have been a book club member for a few years and I think Jeff has put some incredible stuff out there for us all to enjoy.

Glimmer Train is, after nearly three decades, pulling out of the station for good. So many stories we've read since we started in 1990! A person might think they'd begin to seem all the same, but…

The newest issue of Epistemic Literary ( @epistemiclit.bsky.social ) is available now! It includes my poem “Highline” among a lot of other wonderful pieces, which you can read at the link below: epistemiclit.com/current-issue

Highline
I don’t know how to answer
Your questions about God
Or the meaning of it all
But I can say
That my muscles ache
And sweat stings my eyes
As I walk
this dirt path
Between wildflowers and pine
Yes…
I could proclaim the miracle
Of a cool breeze
Caressing my cheek
Beneath the sun’s relentless gaze
Or meditate
On the hymn of a ground squirrel
Sounding his barbaric yawp
Across alpine meadows
I could testify of burning lungs
That gulp for oxygen
Or the way a drop water
Soothes chapped lips
Like a loving mother
Kissing a fevered brow
I could stand at the edge
Of this rocky outcrop
And proclaim it all
To the glacial valleys below
But the trail goes on
And the hour is late
So, I place one foot
In front of the other
And continue on my way

There’s a new word of the week from @thetoypress.bsky.social . The word is “super” Here’s my poem! #kidlit #poetry #writingforchildren

It’s a bird! It’s a plane!

Sometimes
I like to imagine
I’m the Lingít Superman
Powered by fry bread
And fresh g̱áax'w

Just think!
If I could soar
Through the blue sky
Like the mighty Kal-El
I’d be a basketball star

Never afraid
To take my shot
As the clock ticks down
And the whole game
Is on the line

I’d never
Get picked last
Or sit on the bench
But I might end up with
My photo in the paper

Of course
I wouldn’t brag
When you’re a hero
You just let your work
Talk for you

The Guard Dog
by Shaun Jex

“Golden retriever brings toys to the intruder who breaks into his house.”
—The Associated Press

Not quite as brave as Balto
Nor noble as Roselle
Who did her duty faithfully
While walls around her fell

Not stalwart as old Stubby
Who served out in the trench
But thief and flatfoot both agree
This mutt is quite a mensch
