“Things with Wings & Other Poems” is now up as a PDF on Yay Words.
“Things…” is a collection of doodleku derived from a month-long challenge, initiated by Aubrie Cox on her blog Yay Words!
Throughout March 2012, poets were invited to participate in a challenge called “I Doodle, You ’Ku.” A doodle was posted each day and poets wrote poems in response to it.
I didn’t catch on until mid-month, but then what fun it was! Aubrie had the difficult task of choosing one/more haiku per day to go with her doodle. I don’t know how she did it, but the resulting collection is amazing! Truly splendid! Visit and see!
