Writing poetry is hard and exhilarating work. Poetry also does work for both writer and for readers and even for the world. Poetry can shelter our endangered natural world, wrestle with God, hold grief and joy in precarious balance, insist upon hope, and delight. We will read poems, do all this brave work, and write our own brave poems. We will read and respond to each other’s work.

Participants will need access to a computer with camera, smart phone, tablet, or any other device with Zoom capability.
