Poems From Festival Of Books, Part 5 #gooddeedsintroubledtimes
People drew a random word related to Gan Jing World’s mission from a Word Jar and wrote a poem about it! The Tucson Festival of Books was held from March 9 to 10, 2024. #sunshinestateofmindaz #kindnessiscool
Lily Jones. I love engaging with different cultures and different languages and I love the humanities at UA.
My word was inspire. My inspiration comes from multiple sources, family and love.
Inspire, to uplift and create a community for people to feel comfortable with what they want to become.
My name is Monica Friedman and I am an author and illustrator and I live in Tucson, Arizona.
My word was inspire. My poem. Inspire, to breathe in what is interesting in the world, to breathe out what has never been.
To me, it's like if you open yourself to everything, then everything sort of feeds you and nourishes you and allows you to produce.
So like what's in the world goes into you and then it comes out of you in a different form.
