| The Curve of Her Arm by Robin M Mullet and Holli Haddix Rainwater |
 |
| Signing books!! It's harder than I thought it would be! |
 |
| Dianne Borsenik, our publisher from NightBallet Press read a few poems from her newest volume, Raga for What Comes Next from Stubborn Mule Press. For such a tiny person, Dianne has a magnificent presence when she reads! |

| Opening the Door. Every week in class we do a qigong form called Tai Chi Qigong Shibashi and this is the first movement. A way of opening the practice, stepping into the qigong world, leaving this other world behind for a while. |
 |
| Robin M Mullet got the ball rolling when she suggested that we put our poems together and see what happens! |

 |
| We both shared some of our ekphrastic poems, poetry written in response to another work of art. |
 |
| Three Rivers Qigong--A qigong form that I created that focuses on the flora and fauna of Ohio. Robin wrote a poem to go with the movements. "Arms become red bird wings drawing the energy of flight through our spines and outstretched arms." |
 |
| We end each class with one more deep breath in, folding our hands at our hearts, bowing to each other and to the day ahead. |
