Mary of Work of the Poet is a College Literature Teacher, and even though I missed a few questions on her pop quiz the other day =) Mary has awarded me the "Five Blogs That Make My Day" award.Mary made me realize that I was a poet and didn't know it. No, really. The following quote is on her blog:
A poet's work is to name the unnameable, to point at frauds, to take sides, start arguments, shape the world, and stop it going to sleep. -Salman Rushdie
In fact, based on this criteria, every one of my siblings may also have been poets at a very young age because they always took sides and started countless arguments!
Thank you, Mary! I appreciate it so much! Now I would like to pass the award on to 5 Blogs that make my day everyday:
- Empress Bee (of the high sea) of Muffin53
- Nanny Goats in Panties - her motto is Will Work for Pie, that's almost as good as mine!
- Michelle of The Rocky Mountain Retreat - her photography is amazing!
- Ellen from The Happy Wanderer
- Suzie from Up the Hills Backwards
And just for visiting me today, each one of you get Free Hugs and free Linky Love! Seriously, they're totally FREE! Go ahead, take some!
