The Nevermores …
With a nod to Edgar Allen Poe, the name for our poetry group, is a reminder of life’s fleeting moments and thus, why poetry is important: it is a way for us to treasure the unrepeatable nature of a moment, a one-time encounter.
There are five of us. Rose, Marcie, Erica, Ryan, and me. Last week, Erica charged us with the prompt: write about a piece of furniture!
If you’re inspired, join us! Leave your poem (or a link) in the comments!
