A few words, put together in a way we have not heard before, catch our attention.
They bring pause.
They stir something in us.
We may not know what it stirs yet. We simply feel it.
Poetry can grab our hearts before it speaks to our brain.
Poetry can be for anyone and everyone. It does not have to be academic or puffed up (not that academic is the same as puffed up of course).
Poetry can meet us where we are.
Thanks for listening,
Love
Sandra
