#NationalPoetryDay #Wonder

'This day winding down now
At God speeded summer's end
In the torrent salmon sun,
In my seashaken house
On a breakneck of rocks
Tangled with chirrup and fruit,
Froth, flute, fin and quill
At a wood's dancing hoof,
By scummed, starfish sands

...

"The earth’s whole amplitude and nature’s multiform power
consigned for once to colors;
The light, the genial air possessed by them;
colors till now unknown, no limit, confine"
Walt Whitman (1888)

One last look at the stars from my window... imagining a constellation that looks like a cat. Because why not? Everything is better when you weave a bit of wonder into the sky. Goodnight, world. #nightsky #wonder

It's National Poetry Day in the UK tomorrow. The theme is Wonder. Here's my poem Dawdle More : a little reminder to slow down and notice what’s around us. 🐝 🌼 🌎

What small wonders have you spotted today?

Love does not always need a dramatic moment to feel profound.

Have you ever been surprised by how quickly someone became important?

Philosophy, now in bloom. How I love my garden! 🌸

When was the last time you felt awe?

A sunrise, a kind word, a moment of silence. Where is awe meeting you today?

The cleansing of our thought begins with a sense of #wonder: seeing something as if for the first time, with an emotion of joy or ecstasy.

Looking forward to @poetrydayuk.bsky.social on Thursday - we are hosting an open mic at Hitchin Library. What will poets have made of the theme of #wonder?
