Spine Poetry 26/31

A Day in the Life · 3 hrs ago · 2 views

We have been empty nesters for a few years although my daughter moved back home for two months last year. Our kids' bedrooms are upstairs, and after they moved out, I kind of took over this space. My son's room is my "writing room." I have two desks, and one faces out a set of double windows. I love to write here. I have my pens, notebook, and many writing books in this room. My daughter's room is my "reading room." It has many of my book stacks (that aren't in piles downstairs), a "lounge-ish" kind of chair for reading, and bookshelves filled with books read and to be read. Since I have no other ideas to write about today, I decided to spend some time looking through the books and creating some spine poetry! When I write these, I always wonder, "Do I capitalize them like a title?" and "Do I add punctuation?" This time I did neither!if you only knewmy year in the middlethe school for whatnotscan you see meforget me notparachutesten thousand triesimpossible escapea soft place to landThank you to Two Writing Teachers for creating a space for me and other teacher-writers to share our stories.
