Come and enjoy discovering poems inside you that take you to places you didn't know you knew.  Whether you already write poetry or are completely new to the medium, Langley poet Judith Adams will make poetry writing a relaxed and fun adventure. In this three-session class she will share a series of activities that naturally engage your poetic voice and are sure to surprise and delight you. Judith creates a safe and supportive atmosphere where even the most reticent poet will feel comfortable. She firmly believes that everyone has a poet inside ready to come out. People who took her previous poetry writing workshop are welcome to return to this one.
