Venue: The Writers Workshop
Host: Emma Garrard
Poetry speaks to the soul. We can turn to it in times of turmoil to soothe, comfort or inspire. This session is an invitation to connect with the wisdom of the poets and find the wisdom within yourself through poetry prompts for expressive writing.
“Poetry is a life-cherishing force. For poems are not words, after all, but fires for the cold, ropes let down to the lost, something as necessary as bread in the pockets of the hungry. Yes indeed.” Mary Oliver
The facilitator is an experienced Biblio/Poetry Therapist, who will guide you through the process, so no prior experience of poetry, philosophy or therapeutic writing is expected or needed; just the desire for a boost of soul nourishment in the company of others seeking the same.
