The Tuesday Platform

How happy I am to be hosting our open link Tuesday on the final day of June, in the first week of my Winter vacation. (On this upside down planet birds only fly South because it is Summertime in December.) I am looking forward to utilizing some of my free time for writing, and spending more time reading and commenting too.

The Tuesday Platform is your opportunity to write prompt free or share a less recent poem from your archives. Link up and pay a visit to the blogs of your friends and fellow poets.  






Please enjoy this reading of Bluebird by Charles Bukowski, set to music by Symphany 7.

    I'm with Kerry. It is my winter holidays too, so I am doing some long neglected writing. And it feels so good after wading through those mid year school reports.
