This was fantastic. I'm going to share it with some of my students who would love to write Morse Code poetry as well!
ReplyDeletePS You didn't put your link to your blog at my blog. You might want to go back and do that so everyone on Poetry Friday gets to read this!
Michelle, I always enjoy your little ditties, Michelle. Let me explore the topic for this month.
