SUMMARY:Inspired Poetry Share
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy an evening of reading and listening to poetry!\n\nBring your newest work\, your favorite work\, or a poem you read from another poet. We come together on a quarterly basis to read our work and or the work of others and enjoy filling our ears and hearts with poetry. This is a safe space to share your poetry. There is no critiquing\, just appreciation for sharing inspired words.\n\nAnd for those of you who do appreciate a theme here is this session’s challenge by choice: Ephemeral: consider transitions\, something fleeting yet consistent\, spring ephemerals\, and either create or find poetry on this topic.\n\nCome read and listen on Wednesday\, April 29 from 6:30-8:00pm in the Belding Memorial Library Meeting Room with poet Arianna Alexsandra Collins of Offerings for Community Building. Tea and treats will be served.\n\nSponsored by Belding Memorial Library and Straw Dog Writers Guild.\n\nThis program is free and open to the public. Please register by contacting Belding Memorial Library at bmlashfield@gmail.com or 413-628-4414.\n\nThe Library is located at 344 Main St. in Ashfield\, MA.
