I'm glad you dusted off that spider poem. I was especially delighted by "pebble-sized pumpkin" and "A tiny jack-o-lantern/ready to attack." The colors lead to such rich detail in all the poems.Karin Fisher-Goltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10180838581250572921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303906221917588052.post-86498520729935034752014-02-28T11:30:55.686-05:002014-02-28T11:30:55.686-05:00How big is a BIG girl spider, Laura?

Not nearly as pretty, but I dare you to google the image. Also loved the intensity of Michael's poem and Diane's Don Cossacks leaping across the pea green puddle.Michelle Heidenrich Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02051827857519159837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303906221917588052.post-29640598298104423172014-02-28T11:25:23.326-05:002014-02-28T11:25:23.326-05:00The month has really flown by.
