Sponsored by Workhorse, Lexington Poetry Month is an easy to use
platform for poets to publish and share their work in an attractive
way. The community is supportive and diverse, commenting and
encouraging one another throughout June. Money we raise goes
to maintaining the cost of the website and publishing the yearly
anthology. Our goals are to provide every poet (~150) a copy of
the anthology, lower printing costs, and expand opportunities
offered during Lexington Poetry Month, such as featured readings
and poetry workshops.
I agree with Pam that you’ve brought us a piece of Rome with your poems. Such a culture-rich and sacred place to call home. And the lump in the throat is easy to return when you have incredible, impactful people to think back on. Well done, again, Greg!
young or old, the lump returns every time
Vivid feeling.
A lump indeed, friend. 💙
Thanks for bringing both homes to us this month!
A shared feeling, a shaded lump! I echo Pam!

The final line hits hard- “when it’s my home now”- it captures a bittersweet irony of a second leaving, a melancholic leaving.
