Harness your unique vision in poetry. In this class, we’ll explore how image, metaphor, tone and repetition can make your poems vivid and compelling. Shelley said, “Poetry lifts the veil from the hidden beauty of the world, and makes familiar objects be as if they were not familiar.” That will be our aim as we complete writing prompts and provide one another with constructive and inspiring feedback.
