Dark Leprechauns


My first attempt at a book spine poem, this one entitled:

Dark Leprechauns










Just in case the picture is hard to read:

The bad beginning
Outcast
Breathless
Deep survival
Holes
Thinking in pictures
Disposessed
Gnomes
Speak
Where children sleep

    Oh, you discovered such good ones! The real kicker is 'when children sleep'. I'm going now to look for more ideas. You've motivated me again. Happy Sunday!

    @Diana1LitCoach, I got this idea from Linda Baie (teacherdance) and my kids to love it - the only downside is that now hundreds of books are in stacks all over the house!

    Wow! Very creative. The title resonates throughout the poem.
