AS the 2023, WRITING THE LAND POET of Capitol Land Trust’s BAYSHORE PRESERVE, I will read my one of my poems included in this anthology.

This reading was scheduled to align with the South Salish Sea’s annual salmon runs at nearby Johns Creek (Bayshore Preserve) and Kennedy Creek. PLEASE join us to celebrate salmon through poetry and then witness their return at nearby creeks.
