on sandcastle dreams
the muse rides across
new year's dawning day
winter thoughts arrive
poetry postcards,
fresh morning greetings
a story evolves
crackle, fizz, flash, bang
some days we dash to win the race
new hope springs forth with
friendship shipped by air-
heavenly winter gifts

Thank you Jone MacCollach for continuing the Poetry Postcard Exchange and Kimberly Hutmacher and Linda Mitchell for their gifts of song. (Listen to that song below.)
As I receive so let me give and live with joy my whole life through...

And now I turn to the Poetry Friday Roundup that brings a variety of poetry gifts. Catherine Flynn is the host this week and has beautiful, winter haikus for hope. Stay tuned to next week's blog to see more poetry gifts from friends.

My granddaughter Sierra gave me a gift of story when I traveled to Virginia for the birth of her little sister. She told us about her nature walk filled with wonder. I listened and wrote what transpired. Click here. You will also find poetry gifts from Kevin Hodgson and Margaret Simon, who were kind enough to send me a comment with a poem in response to my post and poem. As they said, "Poetry begets poetry."
