    Hello, Joyce! Thanks for hosting. I’m a bit confused about where to post my Poetry Friday link…is it here or is it at Substack? I’m amazed at your aerial photo and your choice of six words! I’m in with my response to the Inklings November challenge: https://heidimordhorstwhispershout.substack.com/p/flying-blind

    Hi, Joyce,

    I love the Sixku! And I agree with Heidi that your aerial photo is amazing.

    I’m also having trouble finding the Substack post in order to comment/link there. If it’s not up yet, no problem, and I’ll check back later!

    If you decide to do the round-up here, here’s my post.

    Hi, Joyce! Amazing photo. And I hadn’t heard of a sixku; yours is effectively “unsettling”! Thank you for hosting; I found your Substack but I can’t find your post. Here’s my link – I’m celebrating the birth of our third baby grand. :0) Poetry Friday – Welcome, Baby! – Robyn Hood Black – child…

    Thank you for hosting, Joyce! I love learning about new forms, and it is fun to read your poem superimposed on such a dramatic photograph.

    Over at The Poem Farm, I am celebrating falling leaves and repetition. You can find it here, and I will be grateful for you to post it for me if you would.

      Hello, Amy! The reds in our neighborhood have fallen; we leave the leaves as best we can. The bugs love the cover. Thanks for sharing the Poem Farm. It is on the Poetry Friday post now.
