Time Out for Poetry

Ogden Nash, Robert Frost, William Shakespeare, Dr. Seuss, Emily Dickinson and maybe even the Burma Shave verses will live again at Madison’s Scranton Library, 801 Boston Post Rd.  Area residents are invited to share their favorite poems on the third Thursday of every month, when it will be “TIME OUT FOR POETRY.” This informal gathering is free and welcomes those who wish to share two or three short poems, or simply to listen. “TIME OUT FOR POETRY” will provide, as Robert Frost defined poetry, “a momentary stay against confusion.” The group meets on Thursdays, from 12:30 to 2:00 p.m. in the Local History Room of the Library. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Scranton Library and hosted by Susannah Graedel.  For further information please call her at (203) 421-1961.
