This is a series of four swaps. One for each week in the month of April (which is National Poetry Month). All you need to do is on a nice piece of colored construction paper or thicker white ATC paper (measuring 4X5" EXACTLY and leaving at least 1" margin on the left side for binding later) the following:

A list of 10 of your favorite poems and their authors, followed by your name, address, and swap-bot nickname. EXAMPLE:

01) Voyage To The Island - Robert Hillyer

02) Asparagus - Margaret Atwood

03) Buying The Painted Turtle - Claudia Emerson

04) A Green Cornfield - Christina Georgina Rossetti

05) The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock - T.S Eliot

06) Unrequited Love - Marilyn Chin

07) April Burial - Mark Van Doren

08) Accountability - Jimmy Santiago Baca

09) The Victorians - Theodore Roethke

10) The Raper From Passenack - William Carlos Williams

You will have two partners and you will make the same sheet X2 (one for each partner). When the month is through, you can make your own friendship book cover and insert your pages and have a nice set of poetry recommendations & friendship book. Since you will be assembling your own book at the end, you can even add pics or copies of the poems themselves that others have recommended to you. Only your drive and imagination will limit you. And since we are only mailing the pages (OH BY THE WAY, DO NOT FOLD THEM, You'll have to use a larger envelope and make certain that the PO Doesn't bend them). A slim piece of posterboard on each side, a cardboard mailer, there are lots of ways to do this).

Requirements: At least a 4.8 with no recent 1's or 3's. No newbies (sorry), If you are a non-rater, do not bother to sign up (manners really DO matter). Final discretion is mine. I do angel my swaps, so if it is 3 weeks past the send date, rate them appropriately and let me know.

Have fun all!

PS: If you want to decorate your pages (that is fine), just do not make them so 3-D that a person can't bind their pages together properly.
