This week’s invitation comes courtesy of the Poetry For All podcast. I found multiple inspirations from this podcast episode, but the easiest are simply the writer Dinah Maria Mulock Craik (pictured above) and the poem: Friendship (artwork via Etsy).

There are also several lines within the poem that provide interesting points for beginning to write:
- What person makes you feel safe?
- List the chaff and grain in your life
- What do you need to blow away?
- Define/describe the breath of kindness
I also love this portrait and her biography even more! And, of course, you could simply write about your dearest friend and/or a recent encounter that included both chaff and grain.
