Savoring Love: Poetry from the Heart

Savoring Love: Poetry from the Heart

Presented by Calliope: Poetry for Community at Woods Hole Library

Rich Youmans and Alice Kociemba met through Calliope—and the rest, as they say is history. Rich will be reading from his chapbook, Head On: Haibun Stories (Red Bird Chapbooks, 2018). Bob Lucky, in a review of Head-On, wrote, “There’s not one haibun in this chapbook that couldn’t be used to teach a master class.”

Alice will read new poems, as well as those from her poetry collection, Bourne Bridge (Turning Point, 2016). She is the founding director of Calliope: Poetry for Community and hosts “Poetic License,” a monthly open mic at FCTV.

They now live in North Falmouth and are currently, along with Robin Smith-Johnson, editing an anthology titled From the Farther Shore: Discovering Cape Cod and the Islands Through Poetry; it will be published later this year by Bass River Press, an imprint of the Cultural Center of Cape Cod.

Listen to their poems celebrating all kinds of love on Saturday, February 15, 2020, 3:00 pm, at the Woods Hole Public Library. (581 Woods Hole Rd.). Read a poem of your own, or by a published poet, at the themed open mic, which follows the featured readings.
