Thank you for the wonderful exuberance. I couldn't agree more.

Here is a request - I am looking for poetry collections that sing about new beginnings, particularly beginning school. Suggestions, please,

Ah, those lazy, hazy days of August's summer is approaching. Could there be anything better to lead (or relead) children into the genre of poetry?

Bring it on. Immerse them in verse. Let them experience what words and language can truly do.

Pass the Poetry, PLEASE!
