What I’m reading…

I’m almost finished reading “We Are Poetry: Lessons I Didn’t Learn in a Textbook” by the very talented Kym Gordon Moore.

Kym is a poet, writer and educational advocate who believes in building ‘bridges of dialogue’ and actually listening.

More importantly, she is a breath of fresh air. I was expecting this to be a book of poetry. It was so much more.

It’s a book about poetry, about humanity, about empathy. And, yes, there are some of Kym’s beautiful original poems throughout the book too.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and, if you’re interested too, it is available on Amazon.

    Sandra, how wonderful to see Kym’s book highlighted here like this! When I interviewed Kym, I was struck by her profound understanding of humanity, what needs to change, and how poetry can provide a valuable bridge.
