A Universe of Rainbows

I love rainbows! So I'm thrilled to share a new anthology about all kinds of rainbows. 

A UNIVERSE OF RAINBOWS: MULTICOLORED POEMS FOR A MULTICOLORED WORLD is a beautiful new book published by Eerdmans with poems selected by Matt Forrest Esenwine and illustrations by Jamey Christoph.  It is a joy-filled celebration of rainbows, and each poem is accompanied by a scientific sidebar offering a few interesting facts. Congratulations to Matt and all of my poetry friends who wrote amazing poems for this anthology.  It is sure to be a hit with teachers and rainbow lovers of all ages.  






I've shared this poem before, but it seemed fitting to share it again today. A few years ago, my son sent me this photo, and here is the haiku I wrote for it.



A big thank you to Matt for hosting this week on his blog: Radio, Rhythm, and Rhyme.
Have a great weekend.

Happy Poetry Month!
