I’m having a great time bouncing from blog to blog!  Today you can find me with Khy, the Frenetic Reader. Did you know I once sat next to a real American Indian Chief on a plane and that inspired a scene in FHN?

Also, you can check out my Romantic Bloopers from yesterday on Harmony’s blog.  Lots of fun!

Lastly, I’d like to feature one of the winning poems from my LoveFlowerPoems contest earlier this month. (Winners receive a package of Forget-Her-Nots swag.) One of my judges, Tenner Blythe Woolston, said:

“I like this formal poem, with its tight end rhymes and well-defined stanzas. It reminds me a little of John Donne–and I like to be reminded of John Donne.”

Wow! Blythe is also a poet, and everybody reads some John Donne in high school, right?  Cool. If you like the poem, send Megan some love.  Here’s her Twitter.

You Slay Me

Speak, speak, or hold your peace forever

For I will not allow your endeavor

This terrible, wretched hold on my heart

With words intended to prick and smart

Like Roses dripping off your tongue

Speak, Speak, or leave it unsung

Laugh, Laugh, tell me I’m wrong

This was not a trick all along

Everything was brilliant from the start

And your Roses only added to the art

Of new love painted bright

Laugh, Laugh, hold on tight

Kiss, Kiss, fade it all away

Keep the jealous fears at bay

Words soft as petal’s dew

Refreshing and brand new

Whisk me away to lands unseen

Kiss, Kiss, end this routine.
