SMALL POEMS AND QUOTES
ON CHILD LOSS.....PAGE 10 Remembrance
Remembrance is a golden chain
Death tries to break but all in vain
To have, to love, and then to part
Is the greatest sorrow of one's heart
Time may wipe out many things,
But this they wipe out never-
The memory of those happy days
When we were all together.
Author unknown "A Life may last for just a moment.... but memory can make that moment last forever..." GIVE US Give us through the coming year quietness of mind. Teach us to be patient and always to be kind. Give us reassurance when everything goes wrong so our faith remains unfaltering and our hope and courage strong. And show us that in quietness we can feel Your presence near filling us with joy and peace throughout the coming year. Helen Steiner Rice If you see someone without a smile . . . give them yours. You know where to find more.

FOCUS on Children's and Young Adult Literature
Overheard:
Q. What do members of the International Reading Association do?
A. They read, I guess.
Besides helping others learn to read and promoting global literacy, IRA members are indeed avid readers. This may be why so many of us are advocates of excellent children's and young adult literature. Through numerous programs, the Association strives to celebrate that excellence and to highlight ways that quality literature can be used to help children grow into lifelong readers.

The Teachers and Writers Handbook of Poetic Forms > Customer Review #1: One of my favorite books

I use this book all the time! Ive had it for over 10 years and find myself continually going back to it. Recently I began writing a poem every morning before getting out of bed, and this book is invaluable for helping wake up my brain and start the creative juices flowing. The forms are clearly defined with good examples given, and the sheer number of forms included is inspiring! If one isnt working for me that morning, I simply flip to another. Ive used this book with teenagers and with adults in poetry-writing exercisesit works well with all ages.
The Teachers and Writers Handbook of Poetic Forms > Customer Review #2: this is a great reference (for all ages) this is a great book: well written; comprehensive but not encylopedic; engaging and entertaining. it was intended for junior or senior high school students and some of its suggetions and examples reflect that BUT please dont let that stop you from buying it. it is simultaneously a good introduction to poetic forms (and poetry in general), a quick reference for the more advanced student, and a source of inspiration for practicing poets.
