Hi, I’m Mo.
At the turn of the year, I was cat sitting for friends who happen to have a stellar poetry book collection. I was able to read 4 volumes of poetry and hang out with one of my favorite cat nephews, Gus!
I made this mini vlog over that time.
My video schedule, like many things in my life so far in 2024, has been all over the place. You wouldn't know it if I didn't tell you, but this vlog is going on 4 month old. I really enjoyed reliving this quiet and peaceful time. I hope you enjoy!
I've talked about all these books in either my Dec Wrap Up or my Jan Wrap Up. See those videos here:
Dec - • December Vlog Style Mo...
Jan - • January Vlog Style Mon...
Here is one of the poems I really liked:
And I Have You
Rain has drops Sun has shine
Moon has beams That make you mine
Rivers have banks Sands for shores
Hearts have heartbeats That make me yours
Needles have eyes Though pins may prick
Elmer has glue To make things stick
Winter has Spring Stockings feet
Pepper has mint To make it sweet
Teachers have lessons Soup du jour
Lawyers sue bad folks Doctors cure
All and all this much is true
You have me And I have you
-Nikki Giovanni
