April is National Poetry Month and in celebration, we’re hosting several teen poetry programs here at the Central Library throughout vacation week. Yesterday’s workshop was called “Poetry In Hand” and incorporated Black Out poetry, Found poetry, and Magnetic Poetry.
The poem below was written by Anonymous at the Central Branch yesterday using Magnetic Poetry:
“FINDING YESTERDAY”
ONLY THIS LOVE
HEALS YOU AND I
IN OUR SLEEP
WE SHARE OUR PLEASURE
FLYING INTO A NIGHT SKY
THROUGH A TRANSITION
WE COME BACK
YOU AND I LINGER
THEN LET YOU AND I
HAVE ANOTHER
