Every time I walk, I snap pictures of trees. Here are just a few examples from recent weeks:
I decided that these pictures needed a poem. I went to the Poetry Foundation, where I discovered the concrete poem, "Whenever You See a Tree" by Padma Venkatraman. The poem ends with these words:
Next time
you see
a tree
think
how

hope
it holds

Something poetic" every day is my commitment for NPM this year.
I'll spotlight a favorite
poem or book or poet or share a quote I love.
Maybe I'll
even stretch myself and occasionally write an original poem.
