04 Nesting Boxes from 100 Days by James Navé
Bluebirds have claimed their nesting boxes attached to the dogwoods that overlook the fire pit in the middle of the side lawn, where two cords of oak and locust sit along the fence at the edge of the woods. I’m grateful for the talks I’ve had around the fire with my friend A.D., who gave me a place to heal. Earlier today, I woke from my lawn-chair nap to see a Cooper’s hawk glide across the lawn and land in a tree.It perched, wiped its wings, and flew on. A storm predicted tonight will tear things apart
to make way for more growth.
May 19-25, 2024: A Dynamic Writing Workshop: THE LAKE EDEN WRITING WEEK- with Nickole Brown, Allan Wolf, James Navé, and special guests: www.jamessnave.com.
BACKGROUND NOTES ON 100 DAYS: Poems After Cancer
Twelve years ago, celebrating Poetry Month beginning April 1, I wrote 100 poems in the 100 days following my surgery on March 30. Last May 2023, 3: A Taos Press published the poems in a beautiful book titled 100 Days: Poems After Cancer: 3taospress.com/authors/james-.... In the spirit of Poetry Month, I'm revisiting this journey by reading one poem daily from '100 Days' over the next 100 days, concluding on July 9, 2024. I hope you enjoy the poems.
