Hello Everyone,
I hope all of you are in good health and are finding ways to stay busy and entertained. I know you are missing your classmates and friends so I will be setting up some Google meetings so we can see each other. Hopefully I can get our first meeting set up soon.
April is Poetry Month so I will be posting some poems for all of us to share and read. Poems are a lot of fun to write, specifically acrostics, haikus, limericks, cinquains, and free verse. I would love to read some of your original poems!
Have a great weekend!
