Poetry Month set for September

Usually, April is Poetry Month, which seems appropriate with thoughts of spring, flowers, soft breezes, trees leafing out, etc. … But this year is out of whack generally and the Castle Rock Writers, who usually hold a spring event, have switched to September, in conjunction with the Poetry Society of Colorado. Colorado poet Juan Morales, who teaches creative writing at Colorado State University-Pueblo, recently presented “Writing the Poems of Our Land” on Zoom, with a focus on the diverse voices and the makeup of our cultures, foods, communities and homes, in free form and in verse.
