“As a self-proclaimed ‘poetry amateur,’ let me just say that I was not prepared for the enchanting delight that the reading would provide me.”

-Michelle Clark

“Poems make it possible for human beings to communicate with each other, and purify the soul of human beings.”

                                -Jin-Sun Han

“The sound of his [Mark Doty] voice was distinct and unique, as it brought out the sounds and tone in his poems.  His sense of humor was remarkable, as he made serious subjects seem light hearted.”

                                -Ashley Woortman
