AN AFTERNOON OF POETRY
December 10, 2019

Five of us gathered on this snowy, grey day. Each of us brought 2-3 poems that were old or new favorites, or just seemed right for the times. We read them out loud; sometimes with a short discussion afterword, or just a moment of quiet to consider the words just read. It was a perfect way to spend an afternoon during this lively, sometimes overwhelming season. Thank you Saran, Joanie, Sheri, and Libby for sharing today.
Here are the titles of some of the poems, should you decide to sample what was read. Most can be found on the internet, except Joan's. She has yet to publish.  :)
