This is my first morning back in the US after two wonderful weeks in Hungary. I was delighted to find several comments on the poems by the Basketball Poets and on the splendid poem by John York. No poems from students, though! I've removed comment moderation, so please feel free to send me some responses. Teachers, too! And anyone else who feels inspired by these posts.
I'll be posting photos and stories about my time in Hungary soon. And I'll be responding to the comments left while I was gone.
I hope October is stirring up all sorts of poetic impulses among NC poetry lovers. I'll be sharing a few of my favorite autumn poems over the next few days. Let me know what yours are, ok?

HI Kay new to blogging more to come
Ms. Byer,
I'm an 8th grade Language Arts teacher. I want to send you some of my kids poems. We have been issued a challenge to blog and communicate with you. We look forward to seeing what you think. I can only enter as anonymous.
Thanks,

Hello anonymous, I'm new to blogging too, so I welcome your responses, your students' poems, and whatever else you want to communicate about language, teaching, poetry----whatever! Looking forward to hearing more from you. K.
Kay,
Thank you so much for taking the time to be with us in Winston-Salem, especially so soon after your return from Hungary (or was that Turkey?).
I hope you had a safe, uncomplicated ride back home. Your support of NCETA means so much to us, and your friendship means so much to me.
I'll send some autumn poems your way soon.
Nancy Posey
