I can imagine of no other avatar than this:
To be one of Mary Oliver’s wild geese.
With the moon in one eye
And the howl in my down
I challenge you to distinguish me
from a poet.
Or Maxfield Parrish.
A note from Beth Patterson, who is host and blogger at the Virtual Tea House (VTH): There are several writers who blog on that site, and she’s invited them to write to this week’s prompt, ‘avatar’. The ones who responded will be part of her post for this prompt. In general, when you are responding on the VTH to the poems submitted by any of the poets that you make sure which one is the author before you address them. Thanks!
