Denton Poets' Assembly will meet again on June 18th for poetry readings by members and guests at the Emily Fowler Public Library from 10 am - noon.
Members will read an assigned poem from J. Paul Holcomb’s lesson titled, "Strawberry Soup." He explains:
"This month I want to tell a tale about strawberry soup, but it’s really a story about how a poem develops, or maybe about how two poems develop, or a story about how one almost develops, the other one springboards off the first and becomes the first published, then the first one lies dormant and finally comes out of the shadows and also gets published."
This will be the first of two poems, or source poem in the Strawberry Soup series.
Following the lesson, members and guests will be given an opportunity to read free-choice poems. Anyone choosing to read a Parallel poem has an opportunity to receive special recognition.
