I'm encouraged to see all of the conversations she has kicked off about poetry, youth, performance, who belongs on the national stage. Thanks for being part of this week's link-up, Mary Lee!
Indeed, she is. This week could have been called the Amanda Gorman Poetry Friday Roundup! BTW, I gave you a little mention in my post this week too. :)
You have a fitting ending to all of today's Poetry Friday, Mary Lee! I just saw that Penguin is issuing the poem alone in a hardback copy, by April!
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! So clever--and so true, Mary Lee!
ReplyDeleteHa! Yes....that is all you need to type. It's an exclamation mark, a bear hug and a hat tip. Cheers, Mary Lee
ReplyDeleteHa!, and indeed. Miss you!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with you, Mary Lee. She IS all that. :)
ReplyDeleteWe share a positive to start our PLCs each week at school. This Thursday I said, "I have two words for my positive: Amanda Gorman." Wow!
ReplyDeleteMary Lee, your response to Amanda Gorman as a phenomenal young poet says it all. I am eager to follow her career.

ReplyDeleteYes, she is.

ReplyDeleteAmen to that!
ReplyDeleteYes. Amazing! Refreshing! A light!
ReplyDeleteShe is, indeed! I was so moved and amazed by her poem and her presence
ReplyDeleteThat coat, though.
ReplyDeleteI'm still on her as "that one thing" PLUS her coat...
Ah thanks for more Amanda Gorman–
ReplyDeletewho makes me smile, and ponder, and hope
