Woe for the birds, alas. Mud. Childhood poem favorite..."I love to feel it squish between my toes...." <br /><br />I always love to read about your drafting process.

I am very, very moved.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06559881249054540947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3311201101178073119.post-37276338678099697082011-01-14T09:27:11.597-06:002011-01-14T09:27:11.597-06:00Thanks, Josh.

I'm quite intrigued by this random word bank exercise, and would be really interested to see a draft of that poem when you think it's ready.
