| Marian’s Poetry Group |
|
2nd Tuesdays, 11:30 AM, Emerson Rm. Do you enjoy reading or writing poetry? Come engage the muse. Join us for this monthly feast of words and sounds. This group has been meeting for many years and decided to name itself after Marian Grabowski, its most devoted member. Marian’s prolific poetry reflected her life as a scientist and her appreciation of nature. Bring lunch for yourself and poetry to share. "To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting." e.e. cummings "It so happens I am sick of being a man... I don't want to go on being a root in the dark, insecure, stretched out, shivering with sleep, going on down, the moist guts of the earth, taking in and thinking, eating every day... I don't want such misery. I don't want to go on as a root and a tomb alone under the ground, a warehouse with corpses... Pablo Neruda, Walking Around Not known, because not looked for But heard, half heard, in the stillness Between two waves of the sea. Quick now, here, now, always - A condition of complete simplicity (costing not less than everything) T.S. Eliot, Four Quartets |
