doing before traveling

Am travelling, by car, tomorrow.
Always have the urge to get a million
tasks done before a trip. This time,
I am trying to focus on the traveling.

Yesterday I walked
among tree and river
and sun and fern
and all was shining.

reading their work aloud,
also.

And today, we are looking
after the eels in the rivers 
and the seas.

be honest

Honesty is necessary for writing. 
I always say this. 
So, when I went to this school
to work with kids, I smiled
at their school motto.
