LEDGE

Lovely is the wild
impassive rise of the sun.

The day boils and sings.
I lean into its cusp.

I am here. This new
is enough.

Come join us at 134 Main Street to meet this thrilling poet, whose work former Maine Poet Laureate Betsy Sholl has praised:

Tenants introduces one sure-footed knock-out of a poet!" Brunswick's Second Friday art walk will be taking place concurrently;
