The Key West Poetry Guild features Conch Poet J.M.Varela Sunday October 2nd

The Key West Poetry Guild meets Sunday October 2nd 7pm at One Island Family 801 Georgia street. The featured poet is Conch Poet J.M Varela ( aka Jeanne Gregory ), one of the founding members of the Guild. J.M writes of the history and culture of her beloved Key West, from ” Romancing the Tides ” ( a title of a poem  in her iconic book ” Inside The Head Of A Conch Woman”) to storms that don’t come, to the healing that only a Key West sunset can bring. Her vigorous, vibrant, fast – paced poems make startling connections. Connie Gilbert wrote ” what Mario Sanchez is to Key West art, J.M Varela is to verse “. Please join us, all those in attendance are invited to read a poem or two of their own during the “lightening rounds ” . info Nance Boylan 908 591 5566
