Just a note to say that although our January and February meetings were small - they were vibrant and beautiful nonetheless. In January, Francine and I got to connect on a level that may have been impossible in a larger group - and for that I am forever grateful. There were poems shared, tears shed, prayers offered, and hearts knit together. In February, Francine and Jennifer and I did the same thing. We read, we laughed, we talked, we tried to unravel unruly family tree limbs, we fretted over situations, we cried, we laughed, and we plotted and planned for my upcoming premiere poetry show at the Rogue Festival.
The reviews from the Rogue Festival are in - and they were so beautifully written, by such true artists, that I have cried over them many times!
As of this moment - our idea to do the THIRD THURSDAY of every month seems to be a little hit and miss. We've had to postpone it again this month because my foster son's Thirteenth Birthday is the same date. I couldn't miss that. We also have several people travelling - so let's stay in touch and find out when and where we can meet again. There is a new cafe opening in Old Town Clovis any day now - and I'm going to instigate that we meet there at least once! It's going to be fabulous!
I am looking forward to hanging out with whomever comes to our March or April gatherings. These things seem to unfold how they want to - no matter what we might have in mind. So I am along for the ride and enjoying this very much!
Take care,
Liesl
