The Poem a Week Project: November 2008

http://poemaweekproject.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html

Saturday, November 29, 2008. In a blue Antarctic dawn. An iceberg calves -. Shears from a glacier. And is released to the sea. It hoards ancient weather. Layers of ice clothing. A coat for each year volcanoes blew. And black ash fell like snow. Nights fall and fade. Age blunts the underwater blades. Wind softens the face. The iceberg travels on. Past old grandfather blues. To finally fall and sleep. On a drift of fragile ice flowers. Monday, November 24, 2008. We're leaving the shop. The HOT WATER sign.

The Poem a Week Project: July 2008

http://poemaweekproject.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Monday, July 28, 2008. My brother had a puffer fish,. He kept it on his desk. A slimy little puffer fish,. And if you took it by surprise. Or loudly slammed the door,. It puffed till it was twice the size. That it had been before. One day, we found the puffer fish. Was absent from its bowl. Our cat looked rather devilish,. For she had downed it whole. And how my wicked brother laughed. When pussy said, ‘Mia-ow! Inflated like a rubber raft. Then loudly went kerpow. Spiky, Spunky, My Pet Monkey. Everything...

The Poem a Week Project: Week 10, 2009

http://poemaweekproject.blogspot.com/2009/05/week-10-2009.html

Saturday, May 16, 2009. Week 10, 2009. May moisture fall softly on the tender scorched earth. May a green haze spread amongst the blackened stumps. May bunches of leaves sprout on charred trunks. May small creatures find sheltering hollows left by fire. May birds find food and fill the air with song. May autumn rains gain strength to. Fill rivers and moisten wetlands. For frogs and waterbirds. May the earth feel renewed and restored. May human hearts lose their fear. Write your own poem. Week 12, 2009.

The Poem a Week Project: April 2009

http://poemaweekproject.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Friday, April 24, 2009. Week 7, 2009. THE SCHOOL CLEANER’S STOREROOM. In the damp-earth dark where no child goes. Fat white bottles nestle like molars. Spray bottles clutter, triggers poised to spurt or mist. Cloths jumble in bright buckets. Germ-killer chemicals swell the air with sickly sweet. Posters and notes command: Take Care! Do This, Do That. A cluster of brooms shelters beneath the king mop,. Wide and orange and shaggy. The vacuum cleaner coils like a ridged serpent, waiting. Where no child goes.

The Poem a Week Project: Week 12, 2009

http://poemaweekproject.blogspot.com/2009/05/week-12-2009.html

Saturday, May 30, 2009. Week 12, 2009. Riding along, with Molly and Jack. Down to the creek on the bicycle track. Birds in the air. Wind in my hair. Creek full of ripples and ducks that go quack! Creek full of ripples and ducks that go quack! Off to the creek with a snack in my pack. Wheels whizzing round with a clickity-clack. Kites in the breeze. Dogs running free and the sun on my back. Snack in my pack. Dogs running free and the sun on my back. Riding back home on the bicycle track. Bike in the shed.
