What's a golden shovel?
It's a type of poem. You take a line from someone else's poem and use each word from that line to end a line in your new poem.
Thank you to the Oregon Poetry Association and judge James Benton for including my golden shovel poem "Our Eyebrows Raised Like Cathedral Arches" among the winners for this fall's contest. Marvin Lurie and Trina Gaynon, the other winners, wrote absolutely stunning pieces. You can read them all by clicking here.
