Had this up for a couple days…
Burning Ice
Out in a totally different direction…
Bird in Hand
Mine is up too:
garbled garbage
All the poems on my blog are on this theme but here’s this weeks: http://craftygreenpoet.blogspot.com/2008/03/amazonia.html
Duet
My take on the prompt…
http://filteredprecipitates.blogspot.com/2008/03/ghost-singer.html
the poem i am linking to,, is more or less the culmination of the rant i posted for sunday scribblings,, to which there is s link in the introductory paragraph…
this is indeed a topic that can be exasperating.. and i often end up “blue” in the face when i attempt it…
the race
so this is not really enviromental per se, but it is about how the beauty of nature can inspire and i thought it fit. i’ve been on vacation for a week, so it’s gonna take a while to get back to it.

Nothing new from me this week, but wanted you to know that RWP is working up some NaPoWriMo support for those who imbibe.
Check back later in the week (tomorrow!)
A whole new spin on recycling…Spinning the Dog
We had a white Easter here, but the Easters of my childhood were somewhat greener.
Okay, evidently I fouled up the link code. Take 2: http://www.vianegativa.us/2008/03/24/easter-eggs/
I meant to put this up earlier…I’m a week behind: Brian Wilson’s A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A TREE. But, a tree is GREEN, so maybe it still works.

Ok. I’m back, with a trio of American Sentences: Trash Talk for Read Write Poem.
I want to thank Tiel for mentioning on an earlier post the form “kyrielle,” and also the two websites on poetic forms. Both sites are very useful.
Traces
I know this is a small thing and very petty but it just bugs the hell out of me.

I posted this a few days ago . . . . but it seems to fit this topic:
ASK NOT – A TRASH TALK, at Nickers and Ink
Blessings,

Nickers and Ink
this for jillypoet–cuz i can’t figure out how to post comments to her blog…
you asked for feedback–i think there needs some sort of transition between the 1st and 2nd lines
other than that, i think it’s amazing and finely woven–just like a samoyed sweater!
A bit late this week. Been off line with tech problems for 5 days. Still, back now. Enjoy.
The Planet Speaks
Me too, better late than never, right?

Here’s mine:

Not exactly befitting the prompt, but it’s the train my brain went on….environment…green…spring….um….ex-boyfriend. Ok. Perhaps I derailed a little.

Here is my offering for
Go Green
It is what I am seeing on a daily basis at the moment. I have to drive through it.
