SUMMARY:Second Tuesday Poetry featuring Lynn Hansen\, Richard Robbins\, and Thomas Mitchell
DESCRIPTION:Join the Modesto-Stanislaus Poetry Center as we present poets Lynn Hansen\, Richard Robbins\, and Thomas Mitchell in a free on-line poetry reading hosted by Gillian Wegener.\n\nABOUT LYNN HANSEN\nLynn M. Hansen is a retired Modesto Junior College professor of marine biology. A member of the Ina Coolbrith Circle\, Orinda\, CA; MoSt Poetry Center\, Modesto; and National League of American Pen Women\, her work reflects her sense of place and the art of storytelling. In 2013 a collection of her poems was published by Quercus Review Press entitled Flicker: Poems. She is currently writing an historical novel about her maternal grandmother\, Mernie Daisy Lewis\, 1882-1963.\n\nABOUT RICHARD ROBBINS\nRichard Robbins was raised in California and Montana\, taught in Minnesota for many years\, and recently moved back west to Oregon. Robbins has received awards or residencies from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Poetry Society of America\, the Anderson Center\, Willapa Bay AiR\, and the Hawthornden Castle International Retreat for Writers. From 1986 to 2014\, he directed the Good Thunder Reading Series at Minnesota State Mankato\, which the Minnesota Humanities Commission called\, “the premier small-town reading series in the country.”\n“Part balm\, part prayer\, part revelation\, the quietly moving and incantatory poems in Richard Robbins’s The Oratory of All Souls reveal a poetic voice that is masterful\, adept\, and profoundly compelling. These supple poems unfold seamlessly\, with the muscular music of moving water: elegant\, clear\, fierce. Robbins has the gaze of a painter\, with a gorgeous insistence on image\, line\, shadow\, and light.” —Lee Ann Roripaugh\, author of tsunami vs. the fukushima 50\n\nABOUT THOMAS MITCHELL\nThomas Mitchell is a shrewd and trusted observer of the natural world. In this third book\, Where We Arrive\, Mitchell listens to “the counsel of water” and moves “from one silence to another.” And as such\, he spies “a red-tailed hawk drifting in absolute loneliness.” More often than not\, Mitchell is a poet of intimate feelings. He remarks time and again upon various stars and moons\, towhees and starlings. His poetry is a poetry bent on reimagining the world.\n—Thomas Aslin\, author of Salvage and A Moon Over Wings\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou are invited to a Zoom meeting.\nWhen: Jun 13\, 2023 07:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)Register in advance for this meeting:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUqcuqvrDkrHN0lTrVUQlB77MvaiI83W4zMAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
