I have a cutting of my mom’s monstera. ❤️

[ALOCASIA @GAY_ALOCASIA]

"Here, as the morning news buzzes more misfortune,
we still notice new life everyday; today, sprouts
on the monstera, condolences from neighbors
after my dad died. My grandma believes flowers
will bloom from the green..."

Thanks for sharing this and for sharing your experience with students.

As someone who went to a community college (Cerritos) always a treat to meet & talk to cc students.

This is so cat.

For I will consider my Cat Jeoffry.
For he is the servant of the Living God, duly and daily serving him.

Happy birthday — so glad you were born and lived. ❤️

[Academy of American Poets @POETSorg]

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.

—Maya Angelou, born #OTD in 1928

Happy Poetry Month! A haiku:

Snowdrops bloom: drooping,
White, just before a snowstorm.
I’ll see you next year.

@temim This reminds me of a recent workshop: a member in her 20s said the dialogue felt “too young” because it was like her talking to her friends but my characters are older (mid-30s). However, it is also how I talk to my friends 🤷‍♀️ 😂
