Poetry Friday: The Tyrant’s Daughter
Every Friday in March I’m posting a new book spine poem to gear up for National Poetry Month in April.
Get in on the act! On Tuesday, April 1, I’m putting up a gallery of your submissions – click here for details on how to submit your poem (and you can check out last year’s gallery to see what the heck I’m talking about).

Fabulous poem!

Travis,
How could I have forgotten you’re wonderful spine poems.
This one is a REVERSO. I’m going to have to start thinking about the fun of writing a poem (or pulling my books together) for you.
Thanks.

Great idea! Adding this to my display for April!
