Poetry is what in a poem makes you laugh, cry, prickle, be silent, makes your toenails twinkle, you want to do this or that or nothing, makes you know that you are alone in an unknown world, that your bliss and suffering is ever shared and ever all your own.’

Dylan Thomas 
Poetry… 
reaches places other words can’t reach 
deepens relationships to all things 
blows the mundane out of the water 
is the new rock and roll 
makes you laugh, or cry, or think 
enhances well-being 
is an antidote - to everything!
