https://penielenv.com/6yswpc9g Here is the challenge: use book titles to create small haiku-like poems. A challenge I couldn’t resist.

http://www.mscnantes.org/ht0ms7az6sm And so I began. Considering I had limited resources while staying in Arizona, I decided to do a trilogy of book spine poetry using the theme of “living the desert”. That way I could use several titles more than once.

  6. There are whole stories in your poems. An open Universe.

      Yes, I managed to write about my 3 month stay in Arizona in a few book titles…maybe I didn;t need to write all these blog posts? 🙂

  7. These are beautiful, Bo. I love this idea. I might have to give it a try.

      Do give it a try, Robin! With your in house library, I bet you’ll have some great finds. I can hardly wait to get home and check out all the books on my shelves.
