Book Spine Poetry

Posted on June 4, 2012 by sarahcondie

Cath has infected me with the idea of creating poetry from book spines.  It is a fun idea and I have delighted in using the books at my disposal.


Story
Secret Daughter
Wilful Behaviour
Breakdown
What am I doing here?
Good news for Anxious Christians
Safe Passage
Loving the Way Jesus Loves
Stepping Heavenward

Most of my friends are not bloggers.  However, many of them read – more than me.  I would love to see their creativity – Michael, Jill, Rhonda, Peter and Joy.  If you read this and have a go, I will post your efforts on my blog.  My reading tastes are somewhat random.

    Spirit Word and Truth
    Anglicanism in Australia
    A Public University
    Believing in Australia
    The Encyclopaedia of Religion in Australia
    He that Doeth
    The Life and Times of an Angry Young Man (The Billy Joel Story)

    I feel like mine is a little bit narrow and potentially boring…

      I love it!

      If you were at home and not in the library it might look a little different. xo

        Sadly, my list at home would be rather similar, except for a focus on genocide, civics and citizenship and history education. I’m hoping some fiction might slip back in there at some point in the future…

    That’s great Sarah! I love the redemptive theme. Did you find it hard? I did. Maybe I’m too much of a perfectionist. I LOVE that book Stepping Heavenward. Mine has disappeared and I think I’ll have to replace it.

    Hope you’re having a refreshing rest… 🙂

      Thanks Cath. Thanks for the inspiration. Was fun. Could almost get addicted. I have a spare copy of that book that you can have – would love you to have it. Will put in Dave’s pigeon hole in 2 weeks. xoxo
