Back from Hungary!

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?
