Exploring the Art of Show & Tell: Writing poems of nature and human nature
With Presenter Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer
When we enter the natural world with a pen in our hands, there’s an invitation to notice not only what is happening all around us, but what is happening inside us. The practice of writing poems can be a bridge between these two worlds. In this 2-hour playshop, we’ll read poems by some of the finest nature poets of our time that balance sensory detail (show) and emotional/intellectual observation and wonder (tell), we’ll talk about how they work, write poems of our own, discuss process, and have a chance for optional sharing.
