Coming Poetry Readings
Carolyn Howard-Johnson will read from her chapbook of poetry, Tracings, Monday evening, Aug. 11, at 7:30 pm at the Village Bookstore 1049 Swarthmore Ave, Pacific Palisades, CA. Poets Alice Pero and Lois P. Jones sponsor ongoing featured readings called Moonday. Learn more at: http://home.earthlink.net/~pero/moonday.html
This poem is a mild rant; it gives readers an idea of the accessibility I reach for in my poetry. Tracings is a chapbook, Cherished Pulse an E-chapbook, both books full of the kind of introspection that, though personal, becomes universal. It is poetry that runs through all of our feelings whether we think of it that way or not. Military Writers Society of America named Tracings for Excellence. Compulsive Reader.com named to their Top Ten Reads list.
Sona Ovasapyan, Rita Gabrielyan, Carolyn Howard-Johnson and Christine Alexanians (l. to r.) show California State Legislature Certificates of Recognition issued by Paul Krekorian at an event at the Glendale City Library where Howard-Johnson introduced Ovasapyan and Alexanians as emerging poets and Garbrielyan, a young poet, served as aide.
