Foldable Friend
When your friends are busy
And there is nothing left to do
Pull out a foldable friend
They’re always there for you

Poetry Friday, Junk Journal Invitation… Let’s Create and Share
Junk journals, art journals, poetry and creative writing are some of the ways, I enjoy digging into creative expression. I’ve been delighted to hear from many of you that you enjoy this too! So I thought it would be fun to a make a Junk Journal Style: “Poetry Pocket.” If you’d like to join the informal Zoom session, email me (information below.) I’ll share some junk journal ideas and we’ll create a poetry pocket together. No junk journaling experience necessary…just some creative time using simple supplies to make a fun pocket that could go into any journal.
I’ve been reading through some of my older journals lately. Here’s a poem I found tucked in one of my Altered Books (a children’s thesaurus from 1968.) “Foldable Friend” is a doodle style poem. This style of poem is something I’m working on for poetry workshops with students. As I flipped the pages, I found some scribble doodles in the book that I forgot I made:) A journal is a wonderful memory keeper!
Junk Journal Style: “Poetry Pocket,” this coming Wednesday 7/29, from 7:00-8:00 p.m., (EDT) email me, jillybeanstudio1@gmail.com. and I will send you the link.
This week’s Poetry Friday Round-up is hosted by Tanita S Davis, she shares lots of poetic inspiration, some wonderful publishing news, and an invitation to write a Midyear Pantoum.
