April, when the snow and ice and all fade into slushy mud, when the world is reborn, when the landscape gets colored in again. This April, I am in love with:
- The colors and images above (and many others on flickr)
- April is National Poetry Month: How are you celebrating?
- The University of Minnesota (hello again)
- and ten other choices
- Hope for GREEN (the world awakening)
- Loft coursework: The Very Short Poem and Finding Your Poetic Voice
- Midsummer Night's Dream in freshmen English
- Wuthering Heights in Humanities
- the color of stones
- Sherman Alexie's book of poems, First Indian on the Moon
- mental floss: I love this shirt
- new bamboo blinds to replace the lace curtains on our porch
- the way words can move in an echo chamber
- Poetry Daily
- looking closer, every day, again and again
- reading lists, independent reading challenges, trying to eek out just one more...
- book clubs with good girl friends
- plotting out a first baby shower

Hey Molly,
I definitely will be writing something every day, but probably not blogging it, like you. I had a friend approach me with a challenge and I thought I'd pass it along in case you were interested.
Here are the parameters:
1. Eight lines
2. Each line should be between 5-9 syllables
3. It must start and end with a rhyming couplet
4. Everything in between is free, up to you
5. It must involve weather (however you choose to interpret that)
I tried it yesterday and it was quite at task, but a good one! So that is one way I will be celebrating. Enjoy April!
Molly---is there some hidden meaning with the lady macbeth handsoap? I'm not a lit-nut like you (meant in the best possible way!), so if you could clue me in, I always love a good joke!

Lady Macbeth, after losing her sanity and realizing all the guilt, has visions, sees blood on her hands. She has a scene where she repeatedly attempts to wash those hands. :) Handsoap. Absolutely love it.
