Sunday morning
old evergreens
in new April sun

Poem by Ellen Grace Olinger, 2017

Spring poetry
journals in the mail
new season of art

Haiku by Ellen Grace Olinger

full moon and sunrise
cactus flowers
by the window

almost February
bright new blooms
on the Christmas cactus

And poems and photo from last year:

some water
for the Christmas cactus
new buds grow

May sunrise
a few more flowers
on the Christmas cactus

The Academy of American Poets began National Poetry Month in April 1996. Today I learned this year is the 25th Anniversary.

And I also read that the Academy of American Poets was founded in 1934.
