ASSIGNMENT: Let the poem have it's way with you.Take some time to create an image that comes to you via the poem.

The image can be anything you choose--from a photo you take to drawing to a collage to a poem or haiku--or even an altar or collage you create in nature.

Please share your "images" in the group here if you are willing. To do that:

1. simply Click "Add a Discussion" at the bottom of the posts here.

2. Then, when prompted, give your post a title and type or paste words (if you're using them) OR use the image icon above the box where you type (looks like a small photo) to include an image.

3. Scroll to the bottom to save.

Enjoy, and see you Wednesday for another rich discussion.
