Poetry Society of Tennessee Workshop via Zoom | Nature Poetry

In PST’s May 10 meeting, join acclaimed author Janisse Ray for an engaging 1-hour workshop in which you explore the intersection of poetry and nature. Janisse will guide you through creative exercises using the natural world as inspiration. By sharing techniques for vivid imagery, sensory language, and metaphor, she will empower you to bring a passion for nature into poetic form. Whether you are a seasoned poet or new to writing, you will leave this workshop with

1) copies of nature poems to inspire you;

2) drafts for a few of your own nature poems; and

3) a better awareness of your voice as an eco-poet.
