The Poetry Initiative

Why poetry?

Anyone who knows me, will tell you that I adore poetry. I can spend hours lost in a poem. Writing poetry is a reflective practice. It requires deep thought, attention to detail and an awareness of emotion.  Writing and reading a poem is an act of mindfulness. Poetry teaches us about ourselves and about others. 

​

This year, I will be launching a poetry initiative - a space for teens.. It's a chance to enjoy life in the slow lane...think haiku on a typewriter.

Workshops will be available for local high schools.
