Description: The Poetry Circle is offered in partnership with BCLIR, the Brown Community of Learning in Retirement, as a part of the Providence Community Library's mission of commitment to life-long learning.

If you have not read poetry recently, you may be surprised to discover that age and experience have broadened your appreciation of how poets help us to see the world in a different light. Short and longer works from the modern era as well as from previous centuries will be explored.

Group members read poems aloud with attention to how the language serves to heighten meaning. Inexperienced readers of poetry are invited to join the group, along with those already familiar with its pleasures.
