Poetic Medicine
“It is difficult to get the news from poems yet men die miserably every day
for lack of what is found there.” - William Carlos Williams
Poetry to the Rescue
There's power in the poem! I'll be offering several workshops in February for both children and adults to support your creativity - and your sanity.

Don't live miserably for a lack of the healing that comes from poetry.
