The Poetry Workshop 2

<p>The Poetry Workshop is more than a class; it's a sanctuary. Every week seven strangers gather in a dusty room above a bookstore united by a shared secret longing to translate life into verse. There's the retired teacher grappling with loss the barista bursting with unspoken anger the young mother searching for her identity and the elusive facilitator who guards a past as intricate as any sonnet.</p><p>As ink meets paper defenses begin to fall. Through prompts and critiques they delve into the raw materials of their lives&mdash;memory love grief and hope. But when the lines between their poetry and their realities start to blur the workshop becomes a crucible. They soon discover that the most terrifying and transformative poem of all is the one they are writing with their own lives.</p><p>A poignant and compelling collection of poems with the power&nbsp; to heal the courage it takes to be vulnerable and the unexpected families we find when we dare to share our stories.</p>
