Poem in Your Pocket Forum Share
« on: January 10, 2017, 11:25:19 AM »
This is reserved for sharing your "Poem in Your Pocket." Monday, April 24th, is "Poem in Your Pocket" Day! The day encourages people to “carry your favorite poem in your pocket to share with your friends and family.” Let's calligraph our favorite poem and share on Flourish! If you also share on Instagram, don't forget to hashtag #flourishforum.  ;D

I love this idea of "sharing" since I'm just a newbie here and a real exchange seems daunting at the moment.
This one and the Cheer Up the Lonely Challenge Share are by far the most attractive to me. So my dumb question is: I am to share my favourite calligraphed poem on April 24th exactly, or sometime along but no later than that particular date?

I'm glad you are excited about these types of shares @sarthina ! I thought it would be a great and easy way for people to participate and share without the pressure of an exchange. While it is always great to receive calligraphed mail sometimes our schedules or fears or what-have-you don't allow it. It's also a great way to practice and set a goal to get something done we might not otherwise push ourselves to do.

That is a good question - the actually Poem in your Pocket Day is April 24th. But anyone can share before or after. I find it's helpful to have a goal date, that way people can plan accordingly. I also thought it would be fun for folks to come on Flourish on the 24th and be greeted with lots of lovely poems on one day. But by all means - share away!  ;D
