Wake Up to the Wisdom of Poetry

POSTED BY
Leah Ingram

Cheryl Perreault offers an opportunity each month to come together with others interested in exploring how poems can provide wisdom for daily life.

All those interested, are welcome to bring a poem that they believe offers wisdom through life observations, story, humor or otherwise.

Bring a poem that has particular meaning to you and share it with the group. If you choose, you can share the reason why the poem is meaningful. What is the wisdom of this poem for you?

No previous background in reading or writing poetry is necessary.

The intention is to share the good guidance and wisdom of the poets we bring to the table with our cup of morning tea, grow our collection of life poems and also share them with one another.

You can also come to just listen and learn and meet others who are interested in exploring how poetry can  offer words of wisdom and life meaning for all people.

Bring your favorite mug and join us for tea! We will have hot water and tea ready for you. Yummy treats will be provided to go along with it.

Cheryl Perrault is a resident of York, Maine who has a background in psychology and education. She has hosted programs of poetry, storytelling and song for communities including 15 years as producer at HCAM-TV for Wake Up & Smell the Poetry. She is also co-editor of two anthologies of community poetry.

For more information, visit the York Public Library website.
