in the Texas Hill Country
Stanley Kunitz has said, "Poetry is language surprised in the act of changing into meaning." Language resonates in our lives and connects us to each other. In this workshop, you will have the opportunity to experience how creative acts of poem making can help you reclaim your feelings, your voice, your truth, and the miracles of your world. Join Lianne Mercer in a journey full of surprises to the eyes and affirmation of the heart.
