“I rhyme / to see myself, to set the darkness echoing.” –Seamus Heaney, “Personal Helicon”

So much of writing poetry is a discovery and honoring of the self. When we are attentive and when we courageously listen to the spirit of our moment, we find the language that reveals who we are, how we imaginatively respond to the world around us, and give voice to our personal joys and collective crises. The poem emerges as a testament of our existence. This generative workshop invites participants to write new poems based on exercises and guided discussions that explore ways we can open a door into ourselves and celebrate what is found there. All levels of writers are welcomed.

LIVE TIME: 10am-12pm EST.
