NRH Poet's Corner
Calling All Poets!
The NRH Poet's Corner Project is always looking for authors to share their work on our website and in informal readings that will resume once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.
Three NRH Area Poets Featured Online
Talented Writers’ Verse Highlighted on NRHPoetsCorner.com
Three of North Richland Hills’ Poets Corner writers are being featured online as part of a North Richland Hills Parks and Recreation creative initiative intended to encourage and promote the art of prose, poetry and self-expression. The NRH Poets Corner project began in 2015, and has enjoyed a successful partnership with Roots Coffeehouse since that time, with regular quarterly readings being held at the popular and cozy venue. Justin Bent, Joseph Anzaldua and MiShon Landry will have their poems posted online at NRHPoetsCorner.com until June, 2020, so that readers can access and enjoy their work. All three authors write from deeply personal spaces, encouraging others to explore our different perspectives, our striking similarities and the personal struggles and triumphs that unite us all.
Once readings resume, poems can be on any subject* and in any style and poets must perform work that they have created. No performance can last longer than 3 minutes, and the readings are limited to 18 authors. The event will operate on a "first come, first served" basis at sign in. All you need to do is show up, sign up and be heard!
* Views expressed in the Poetry readings remain those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the City of North Richland Hills, its employees or elected officials.
