The February Challenge came from Molly. She borrowed a challenge from Audrey Gidman and asked us to “Write a poem after Wendell Berry’s “Like Snow” — word for word. Here is my response:

“Like the Moon”
after Wendell Berry

What if we went about our days
like the moon, serenely, serenely
shining wonder and hope
into the world.

Be sure to visit Molly at Nix the Comfort Zone for the Poetry Friday Roundup, and to see how she met her challenge. The stop by my fellow Inklings’ blogs to read what “Like Snow” inspired them to write.
