This week’s #poetryprompt from my kidlit Rhyme Time group:
Either write a poem about “summer fun” or “summer sorrow.” Take your pick.

And a coffee bar!

+ hot chocolate (see next post for recipe)
📚☕🐶
This recipe is in the cookbook my husband and I co-published when we owned Dreamcatcher B&B (Taos, NM).
Top with:
a large marshmallow on a candy cane dipped in chocolate (roll in crushed peppermint!).
The hot cider recipe came from my mom.

My mother, the inimitable Jane Yolen passed away this morning after a blessingly short fight with Alzheimer’s. She did not suffer, and went peacefully into the ether which, I am certain for her, will be filled with words of the most exquisite beauty and meaning.
My answer is definitely yes!
