Poetry Readings

A local library is having poetry readings on Wednesdays for National Poetry Month. Someone gave me the idea of sharing the lyrics of a song I recently wrote ("In 1776"), reading it like a poem. So, I did. I enjoyed sharing it, and several people praised it. People I admire and respect told me my work was great. Such validating words mean a lot to me. I'm grateful for the opportunity to share poetry with others this afternoon.
