I used to go to a little used bookstore right next to an indy coffee shop in Bethel, Molten Java, I think? And there was a yarn store in Bethel I went to sometimes -- those were about the only reasons I went to Bethel, and they were toward the end of us living there.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-20001948781574118772016-04-17T19:02:29.802-04:002016-04-17T19:02:29.802-04:00Thanks Hamlette for adding me to your list of poet...Thanks Hamlette for adding me to your list of poetry postings!

And I have to say that knowing the stories behind these poems really made a difference in how I enjoyed and listened to the poems.Suzanne Yesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340451897624838384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5447574405650512339.post-40041138395265586692016-04-17T18:55:04.444-04:002016-04-17T18:55:04.444-04:00Hello!

I LOVE going to poetry readings, and even participated in some when I was in college. They are a cozy experience, generally. I haven't attended any in a while, but I'm sure when my kids are a bit older, I will get to more again.<br /><br />And hey, I know where Bethel, CT is! Just one train stop down from Danbury. We lived in Danbury for 3 years!

I know exactly what you're saying about some of the poetry being "too deep" to enjoy. What was nice about this poetry reading was that there was a variety of poets and types of poetry. Kind of something for everyone and I loved it. You would have definitely enjoyed it!!

I LOVED it... but I have not gone to others. I think I'm afraid the poetry is too deep for me - filled with too many metaphors that I won't understand. Silly, huh?Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08414201637917215413noreply@blogger.com
