Poetry can save your life. It can resurrect your soul. It can illuminate your love and those your care for in ways other writing cannot. #poetry

Today, March 21st is National Poetry Day! Take a look at this impressionist painting. What do you notice in the painting? What colors do you see? How does this painting make you feel and why? Write a poem about it using the word BLUE.

• I look forward to an America, which commands respect throughout the world not only for its strength, but for its civilization as well. • I look forward to a world, which will be safe not only for democracy and diversity, but also for personal distinction. #nationalpoetryday #writingcommunity

• When power corrupts, poetry cleanses. For art establishes the basic human truths, which must serve as the touchstone of our judgment.

• When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man’s concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence.

Students are asked the questions, given sentence starters, and asked to discuss them with the group before writing them on paper. Allowing the students to talk it out before writing alleviates the anxiety of not knowing what to write.

Valentine’s Day can sometimes be a challenge but it important to know and understand who you are. This poem started as a quote I saw on social media, but it became a bio poem of me. #poetrysky #poetrycommunity #love #writersky Happy Valentine’s Day!! ❤️🥰😘😍

While sitting in my chair at the hair salon, I thought about all the negative news stories being thrown out and the word “overwhelm” scanned across my brain.

@bethkempton.bsky.social has a #tinywinterpoem challenge that hits all the right spots. One word, one picture, and write for ten minutes. The poetry that’s created packs a punch and there are not any revisions. Sometimes our imposter syndrome needs a rest. #poetrysky #writersky

This is precisely why we must continue to encourage folks to read and talk about reading.

This mindset erodes trust in educators and institutions, leading to diminished resources, lower academic standards, and limited opportunities for students to engage with diverse ideas. Let’s keep resisting by continuing to read and think critically. #booksky 📚 💙

Anti-intellectualism undermines public education by devaluing expertise, critical thinking, and the pursuit of knowledge, prioritizing conformity over curiosity.

Creativity is the doorway to emotion, advocacy and solace. If we continue to write, draw, paint, knit, crochet, sculpt, or act, we learn how to think. Power is in our voice. #Creativity #WritingCommunity #Poetry

“I am by all means political.” Poetry can release the depths of what you are in a way that changes you. Your words matter. You matter. You are. #writersky #poetrysky #WritingCommunity

The TikTok ban feels nothing more than like a stunt. Playing with the livelihoods of 170 million Americans was never the answer. My thoughts in this special, mid-day newsletter. open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...
