For you...
...under "Creative Projects," I have a series of "Pandemic Poems," including one called "Home School," with thoughts on what we might all teach each other while we are lying low.
...under "Resources," I have a "Poetry prompt set" in case your time at home calls you to explore the writing of poetry.
And under "Creative Work," some films & songs for your pleasure.

Our Singer Come from Afar
for Naomi Shihab Nye
Be our wren or warbler lit in willow
swaying with your tender weight
of songs, sipping the sky to tell us
hard things from far away you
freighted for our understanding and
comfort. Sing the mysterious harmony
of news and blessing, hurt and healing
offered with head high, eye bright
until with a friendly shrug
you flit away and leave us
strangely younger.
from Singer Come from Afar
(Red Hen Press, 2021)
