11. Thanks so much for doing the roundup this week.

    At Wild Rose Reader, I have a story about an unpublished poetry collection that I’ve written. The post includes a poem from my collection of candy poems and pictures from Yummies candy store in Maine where author/illustrator/friend Grace Lin and I shopped for sweets to give me poetic inspiration.

30. Hi Stacey and Ruth,

    Thanks for hosting!

    In honor of Father’s Day, I have a poetry story about father and son. Although they had their differences, you can see how great of an influence the father had on the son. Some say the son surpassed the father. I would rather look at it that the son stood on the father’s shoulders.

    You can read about Gerard and Manley Hopkins here:
    http://teachpoetryk12.com/gerard-manley-hopkins/

    Also, I included a famous poem by Gerard.
