Washington for Lovers

2/15/2012

I have a new motto: Washington is for Lovers and Poets.  Maybe it will become a bumper sticker.  Here we are just after Valentine’s day which is a week long event, at least, here.   Forsythias bloom, eagles are nesting, jonquils and tulip bulbs are ready to burst – love is in the air. 

As for lovers and poets, the past weekend featured: 

·         “love uncensored”  nineteen couples spanning the decades from those in their twenties to couples in their seventies, reminded us of the many levels and nuances and transformations in love.  The couples read poems of their own creation or from their favorite writers, to each other – and to us in the audience – revealing glimpses of their relationship.  It was touching and hilarious and R-rated and so very sweet. 

·         original valentine love poems were printed in the newspaper and on the paper’s website showing us the many ways that we love and are loved.

Love poems and songs will be featured at the Deming library this coming Friday night as 12 poets and musicians express love in its myriad forms.  Our Deming librarian is certain we will serve up chocolate along with poetry and adds “all we need is dancing and we’ll be having toooo much fun!” 

Hope you’ve made a place for lovers and poets – and chocolate – in your life. Who could ever have toooo much fun???
