If you’re not busy tonight, consider listening to WCWP.org (88.1 FM in Suffolk) at 8pm. Rock N Soul Gospel will be playing excerpts from my spoken-word CD, Music of the Forest.
Best wishes for a Healthy and Hopeful New Year, Mary 🌿
Thank you to everyone who joined us for an evening of poetry and music –and the CD release for Music of the Forest — hosted by The Walt Whitman Birthplace Association!
Kudos and a depth of gratitude in particular to WWBA’s host Caitlyn Shea, poet/author, Linda Trott Dickman, singer/songwriter Paul Ammendola of Red Words, and guitarist/husband Mark Phillips for enhancing the event with their gift of words, voice, and music.
Most of the poems on the video are from my new spoken-word CD, Music of the Forest.
For those who were unable to attend, here is a video of the event:
Stay safe,
stay strong,
and be encouraged,
Mary
