Poetry Friday: Last Minute Effort


Last Minute Effort 
Karen Edmisten 

Life is busy,
(as you know.)
So this week something
had to go.

Poetry Friday?
(Yikes! No post!)
I'll send you elsewhere,
to the host.

Simple solution.
(Brilliant, I know.)
Laura's the best.
Go, now. Go!

Be sure to congratulate Laura on her new book, Snowman-Cold=Puddle: Spring Equations! And, if you feel so inclined, take up her challenge to write an Equation Poem.

Here's mine:

Busy week + Poetry Friday = Last Minute Inspiration

When I read your poem, I thought about how poets can be playful in their words, not only so serious. Well done at 'your' last minute, Karen!

I totally get it, Karen! Kudos to you for getting your poem in, and it's super fun by the way! Poetry Friday snuck by me this week, but I hope to be back next week with a friendship poem for Valentine's Day. Have a great weekend!
