To celebrate National Poetry Day, Maria McManus (Label Lit) recruited the help of 65 poets worldwide to pen poems on labels and leave them in unexpected places for the public to find. The full article was in Belfast Telegraph yesterday.
Our very own poet Mrs C Hambly was one of the chosen 65 and had her poems hanging in Belfast today and we had the pleasure of finding two surprise labels this morning outside the main entrance of Enniskillen Royal Lough Shore site.
Rewrite
If only I could redraft
Some pages of my life
To give them a second run.
I’d remove those wrong words
And highlight the names I’d loved.
From Whellow
I open the answer book,
Shuffle the pencil case,
Put my best pen forward…
At least, I know my name
