Instructions for living a life. Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it. 
– Mary Oliver (1935-2019)

Poetry has been feeding souls, inspiring wisdom, and evoking emotions since the first poems were shared thousands of years ago.  The writing and reading of poetry has healing properties that can help make sense of the world we live in and the experiences we’ve had in it.

Join host Steve West for an hour of sharing poetry and discussion every Friday evening.

Bring some of your favorite poems, whether they’re your own writings or by someone else, and read them to fellow poetry lovers in an inclusive, supportive, non-judgmental, online circle.  Those in attendance may offer their reflections on what’s been read.

Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen. 
– Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519)

Drop-in Circle

Registration is NOT required to participate in this circle, and there is no cost to attend.

You are welcome to come to every circle or just once, whatever works for you.
