30 Poems in November! is a literary fundraiser for Center for New Americans. Center for New Americans welcomes and serves immigrants in Western Massachusetts with free English classes and a range of support services. For more information, please visit: http://www.cnam.org This year, we aim to raise $65,000. Writers do their part by writing one poem each day in November. Friends and family do their part by donating to support this effort. Powerful new poems and financial contributions translate to community support for immigrants.
I love being a nurse practitioner so much I quit retirement. I'm working at a community health center in Springfield. Still Bubbe to the nth. Still immersed in poetry! Everything I do is about connecting...
I have lots of ideas for November poems. Of everything calling out to me, the junk drawer is clamoring the loudest. Could you see sonnets, and duplexes, and blues poems & prose poems jumping out when I open it up?
What better way to express gratitude for EVERYTHING than to raise money for the Center for New Americans? I would so appreciate any contribution. If you want to be literary... a dollar a poem, recalling the legendary Anais Nin would be wonderful.
