NaPoWriMo.net suggested<\/a> but here you go, Day 29. The linked poet’s blog, Peter Roberts, I remember from last year. His #29 was just spot on and I especially appreciate his keeping with a theme all this time.<\/p>\n39.<\/p>\n
For you a month
\nof dancing with words
\nis both long and short
\na gavotte of rhyme and meter
\nmeaning and theme
\nrising and skipping
\nfrom line to line
\nYou write them on the page
\nor place them on a screen
\nand look and re-write
\nand look and re-type
\nand hope someone will read them
\nsomeone will find them
\nYou learn some poems by heart
\nreciting in the quiet
\ndrawing the words and meaning close.
\nOur songs we write together
\nI tell a verse and all repeat
\nwe say it all together
\nwhen we’re ready we go on
\nwith the next stanza
\ndrawing on the story
\nspinning out the hymn
\nwaves from mouth to ear
\nand stringing us all together
\non an endless horizon
\nof song and memory.
\nWe still remember, here
\nin the starlight, on the seas
\nWe sing of time pouring forth
\nour tales and yours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
