Join us for our Poetry Book Group meeting! This month’s book is Night Owl by Aimee Nezhukumatathil . You do not have to be a poet or poetry scholar to join! Poems are meant to be accessible to all, and possess the ability to conjure unique emotions within each reader. All you need to bring is an open heart and an open mind!
