In celebration of April being Poetry Month, the Cordova Public Library staff installed an interactive magnetic board with movable printed words on chips. Our creative library patrons assembled an array of poetic phrases by inserting and rearranging the tile chips. Here are some of the interesting thoughts compiled on the board from our local aspiring poets:
“I have a love of TV”
“over time you need less”
“worship spring beauty”
“me like to eat sausage & egg”
“I can dress him up cool”
“be one with raw forest”
“always dream for sweet chocolate”
“deliriously frantic mother”
“garden goddess could play”
“the gorgeous summer moon sky”
“her ship sings with light”
“push the enormous fiddle quickly”
“drool languidly”
“swim together in hot honey”
“luscious puppy licks on life milk”
“see the wind”
“lazy blue sea symphony of mist”
“sordid shadows whisper through the storm”
Next time you visit the library, stick a pin on the map hanging on the wall in the periodical section: Where are you from? By the end of summer we should see quite an array of pins inset across the state and globe!
