Do you love Shakespeare’s sonnets?  Ferlinghetti’s free-wheeling poems?  The elusive Emily Dickinson?  Maya Angelou, Billy Collins, Robert Frost, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Odgen Nash, Sylvia Plath, Marge Piercy, and all the many others — what poet has gifted you with your favorite poem?  Come to this Poetry Month celebration to share a poem that has enriched your life or helped you though a difficult time. This reading is a marvelous way to discover new poems, as well as share your own favorites. Drop in for a while, or stay for the entire program. Any poem or poems (not your own) you can read in 3 minutes or so. This event is based on the Favorite Poem Project originally instituted by the Library of Congress.

Light refreshments will be served.
