Happy Poetry Friday, all! We travel down under, once again, this time to visit Kat Apel. Kat has hosting duties on her blog this week. You may journey to it here! Kat, who I was thrilled to chat (all too briefly) with at NCTE this fall, has an update on not only the fire situation in Australia, but the amazing fundraising efforts of the kidlit community there.

Tiny treasures, in the form of poetry postcards, have been drifting like twinkly snowflakes into my mailbox over the last few weeks. They are, as others have said, a welcome change from tax-related documents, bills, and junk mail. How little personal mail we receive throughout the year. So grateful for opportunities to communicate on another level with others. Many thanks to folks like Jone, Tabatha, and others, who organize such exchanges. So good for the soul! My offerings are on their way to you as we speak, dear friends.
Many thanks for hosting this week, Kat. Now let’s bring on the poetry!

Tiny treasures indeed! Love how you describe them as “drifting like twinkly snowflakes.”
Real mail from real people is the best treasure to discover in the mailbox.

Adore your sweet Mourning Dove, Molly. I’ve brought it into my classroom to show my young ornithologists!
