Do you know that June is PoArtMo Month?
PoArtMo stands for “Positive Actions Rally Thoughts & Momentum.” Now in its third year, Auroras & Blossoms’s movement is a celebration of positive, inspirational and uplifting creativity. Everyone, ages 13 and over, can participate!
Our first PoArtMo Challenge for the month focuses on environmental awareness. I invite you to check out David Ellis’s post to learn more about the prompt.
My contribution to this challenge is a hemingku that expresses my awe and love of nature. We need the Earth more than she needs us...
Your Presence
Your gentle tides,
the soulful dust
of your words —
near.

Hemingku inspired by Dylan Thomas’s Do not go gentle into that good night and Maya Angelou’s Still I Rise.
