Invitation to The Fourth Annual Brigid in the Blogosphere Poetry Slam


Feel free to copy the following to your blog and spread the word. Let poetry bless the blogosphere once again!

WHAT: A Bloggers (Silent) Poetry Reading

WHEN: Anytime February 2, 2009

WHY: To celebrate the Feast of Brigid, aka Groundhog Day

HOW: Select a poem you like - by a favorite poet or one of your own - to post February 2nd.

Thank you, Reya, for beginning what is now an annual event.

Found you through Moonroot. I will happily join in. Last year was fabulous. I've posted the invite on my blog.

Amusingly, the word verification for today spells the word "conch".

It's amazing to think it's been four years now. My latest is once again inspired by Bride directly, and you'll know how to find it, dear friend, but for those who don't, here's the direct link:

Poem for Imbolc 2009

Thanks to anyone who heads over to read it, and feel free to leave your thoughts in the comments. I'm now looking forward to some serious web-hopping as I leap from link to link on here, checking out everyone else's contributions to this truly special and, I believe, sacred cyberspace event!

I hope you all had a truly amazing Imbolc. Bride's transformative and creative power truly is, I've found, a rich blessing time and again. x
