I really enjoyed delving in the history behind the poetry this week. I hope you did, too:
We were introduced to Sassafras John
We learned crime doesn’t pay
We recited poems from memory
and we reflected on timeless themes
More fun planned for next week, including a trip to the moon. Have a great weekend, and thanks, as always, for sharing this site with your friends and family.
A bit of history courtesy of Richard Mapes. Robert A. Shanower presented this memento to Arthur F. Mapes in 1968.
