I love September, the way it reminds me to slow down and breathe in the cooling air. What do you think of this time of year? That said, my poetry prompts are not autumn themed (maybe next month?) because it does not yet feel like autumn. Instead, you’ll see lots of prompts about love and the soul, my two favorite topics. And some others strewn throughout too of course! Which speak to you? 🤍 Please do share and tag friends who might enjoy this list!! I really so appreciate your support…

10 Reasons You Should Teach Poetry

It's about time, teachers, for National Poetry Month. Here are 10 reasons you should teach poetry: Poetry enables teachers to teach their charges how to read and find meaning in any text.

Free Poetry Printables for National Poetry Month

I had a hard time grasping the symbolism in many of the poems we read in school. Even so, there was something so hypnotic about the rhyming and meter of them that mesmerized me.
