Hello poetry friends! We had a great time with you at the Lehigh Valley Poetry Salon on June 6th. We had our usual “mini workshop” followed by our open mic. Great sharing and chatting about summer events and plans. There are a lot of events coming up, both in person and virtual. As for our monthly virtual salon, we will be taking a break for July and August. The salon will be back on September 5.
