Stark poetry


Are you having a great national poetry month?  Are you following the Cuyahoga Public library's 30 Days of Poetry series, featuring 30 poems by 30 Northeast Ohio poets (today's poet: Jack McGuane), and challenging you to write your own 30 days of poetry?

Meanwhile, the Stark county library is also celebrating Ohio poets:
To celebrate National Library Week, we asked seven Stark County authors to loan the library a passage of a previously published work that touched somehow on the theme of libraries, librarians, books, and/or reading. We also asked each of them to tell us what libraries have meant to them. Each day this week we are featuring the response of one of those writers among whom are a historian, a journalist, three poets, and two fiction writers. You can come here daily to read their offerings.

Keep watching all week, and don't miss some of the writers featured:

Wish I had more time to do so.
