I used to use this book and send (text) all my kids a different title and the words that go with it. At the end of the week we would all read, text or some how share the poem we wrote that week…
My older children are too busy and my younger ones are all in highschool and have other things they want to do……
Here is one that I rewrote a few times .
A window in my soul, looking toward the light.
Curtains drawn in silence frame the panoramic night.
I shudder when I see you, so I keep my eyes shut tight.
All because I love you, the shadow that I fight.
1st draft.
