This podcast is dedicated to all things poetry! I believe poetry is for everyone, and on this podcast, I endeavor to prove it to you! For each episode, I present a poet, a poem (or poems), or both, and discuss them. Occasionally, I invite guests to join the conversation. At the end of each episode, I leave you with a challenge for you to start exploring and writing your own poetry!
