#PoetryMatters Day 4: #Oath

I was first exposed to Cummings and avant-garde poetry in 9th grade. His brilliance and depth still speak to me.

#poetrymatters #MyChoice

Theere are so many wonderful poems it is impossible to choose just one as a favorite. Yet, for some reason this one had always stuck with me. I hope you like it as much as I do.

Had a check up from my brain treatment today - the tumour hasn't grown or shrunk & I'll have another MRI next year to find out if it's worked.

Helping 4th graders parse this poem always makes for a great #PoetryWednesday

Haven't got just one favourite so far for this year so have a selection! #splashintosummerreads @Tiffy_Reads

A selection of my 4 & 5 ⭐ books by #american authors for @Cinfhen's #rockinmay

Had some fun with the 4th grade poem for #PoetryWednesday Color coding it helps the kids string together the words that cummings separated.

This line has always reverberated with me. I'm trying to enjoy poetry more. I still have my days where I feel like a gorilla trying to make sense of prose... but I'm getting there. 🦍Happy World Poetry Day!! 🦍❤️

Alongside my #tobecompleted post, these are the books I'm hoping to read this month. I am going on holiday to Cyprus in the middle of the month, and these are all on my Kindle, so this should be achievable. Will tag the others in comments.
