SPLINTERS FOR JUNE 2022

1. Margaret Roxby’s poem “Your Name Remembered,” suggests the importance of a name. Are you happy with your name? Why? Would you change it? How and why?
2. Nature’s effect on us is the subject of several pieces this month. What is your favorite or least favorite thing in nature? Why?
3. Dance features in three offerings this month, two poems and a memoir piece. How has dance impacted your life or that of someone you know? What are your feelings about dance? Do you believe it has value, is an art form, or a waste of time?
4. Forgiveness is potentially a wide topic: forgiveness of a person or persons you know, the forgiveness which does or does not follow war or institutional injustice, forgiveness of yourself, maybe more. Choose a point of view and write about your understanding, your experience.
