Sunday, August 17 Service:
Poetry, Poetry and More Poetry,
coordinated by Cynthia Edwards.
It’s time again for the Fellowship’s annual summer poetry service. Many fellowship members and friends are poets who generously share their work with the congregation in this service each year. Others are invited to bring old favorites, including whimsical poems by the late Carolyn Wanson, a member who was the Poet Laureate of the Conch Republic.
So dust off your portfolio or pull out your beloved poetry volumes and bring a poem for this special service.
The service is dedicated this year to the memory of UU poet Ric Masten, who wrote, Let it Be a Dance, one of the congregation’s favorite songs. Masten died this spring, on the California coast, surrounded by his family and admirers.
Cynthia and Rick Boettger met Masten at the UU Berkeley (Cal.) church in June of 07. Some of his powerful poems will be featured in the service.
