Poetry is magic. Poetry is healing. Poetry is lushness. ***** Poetry
is a vital manner in which to communicate to the self and with the world. I have been writing and reading poetry for almost 30 years. I have found joy, solace, freedom, and the tools for digging deeply in the black mud of my darkest fears and most pressing yearnings. Poetry permits sunlight where darkness wants to tread, and too, poetry permits darkness when sunlight is not desired. Because
of my kindred dance with poetry, I am able to teach others via classroom and
on-line courses. To find and use their words to reach their soul, in many cases
and to reach into the souls of others because of their stunning creations, is
something that I inspire my students to do. They participate in the act of
creating, of shaping, and of acknowledging art, of fostering healing. On
my Poetry Web Site www.dance-with-words.com
individuals have a space to write and to share their work in a kindred community
that participates in the pleasure and the vital necessity of penning their souls
into the universe. Sharing. Teaching. Learning. Speaking. Hearing. As
a Member of the National Association for Poetry Therapists, and an experienced
poet, writer, and speaker, I find and offer others techniques to write their
truths, to embrace the paradoxes of being alive, and to live rich and rewarding
lives. I
warmly invite you to the courses, talks, and workshops that I have to offer so
you too can feel the healing effects of poetry. Please feel free to review the
testimonials of what others have had to say about my works and offerings. Sincerely, |
