Alice Walker: Collected Poems
Alice Walker: Collected Poems: Her Blue Body Everything We Know: Earthling Poems 1965-1990 | Alice Walker
7 posts | 1 read | 7 to read
The collected poems of the Pulitzer Prize winning author of THE COLOR PURPLE. 'I am the woman offering two flowers whose roots are twin. Justice and Hope Hope and Justice Let us begin' Alice Walker has been writing poetry since the summer of 1965, when she travelled to East Africa and began the collection ONCE while sitting beneath a tree facing Mount Kenya. Encompassing the collections ONCE, REVOLUTIONARY PETUNIAS & OTHER POEMS, GOOD NIGHT WILLIE LEE I'LL SEE YOU IN THE MORNING, and HORSES MAKE A LANDSCAPE LOOK MORE BEAUTIFUL as well as other poems, this is a wonderful, surprising, entertaining collection that offers a historical perspective on the evolution of both the poetry itself and the political and spiritual inspiration behind it.

Finished my steps for the day with a date night in Uptown Charlotte. 🥰 The park on the Green has these lovely author-themed street signs. 😃

Didn‘t get to listen to much of my audiobook on my morning walk today, since I ran into 2 friends who joined me for most of my walk. I enjoyed the company!

Today‘s meditation focused on using your senses to tune into your surroundings, inward and outward.

alisiakae @sharpiepup Have you been since they built Romare Bearden Park nearby (by the Panthers stadium)? It‘s another great little urban park. I love this part of the city. 5y
BethM Cool signs and good job! What mediation app are you using? 5y
alisiakae @BethM I am using Insight Timer. 5y
BethM Which program on there are you using? I find that app overwhelming. 5y

alisiakae @BethM I usually choose a guided meditation by topic. I go to meditation - guided, then pick something for sleep, gratitude, stress, etc, depending on what I am in the mood for. 5y
alisiakae @ChasingOm In the top right corner of the Fitbit dashboard, there is a share button. On the screen, there is an option to add your own photo, and then you can skip posting it on FitBit and save it to your photos instead. 5y
ChasingOm Thank you!! 5y
tdrosebud I never knew you could set up as photo like this. Thank you for showing me something new. 5y
Caterina How lovely to have 2 friends join you for your walk! Sounds like a great day for spending quality time with people, with the date night too! ❤ 5y
