Day 2- Who was the last person you texted? Write a six line poem to that person.
In her hands
lie years of suffering
Through her eyes
I see infinite possibilities
And in her heart
peace was born.

30 Day Poetry Challenge - Day 1
Day 1- Write a poem where each line starts with a letter from your first name. It can be about anything, but it should not be about you or your name.
Just as the leaves begin to turn
And the wind sweeps through your veins
Zion’s light comes pouring down
Erasing all the pain
Removing all the hardness
And now
I can feel the rain.

But the series already has some competition. Friday, NBC brings it with...

Students Teaching About Racism in Society
By now you’ve seen the poster by Ohio University’s Students Teaching About Racism in Society (STARS). The PSA has gone viral and its a good thing, because every Halloween some ignorant and hateful costumes never fail to make appearances.
These posters campaign against that, with the slogans that say “We’re a culture, not a costume.” I only hope that people realize...
