P – Call for Submissions to Sunshine in a Jar: “The Story of Water”

April 1, 2022 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
POET LAUREATE OF COBOURG

The Story of Water: Call for Poetry Submissions

February 12, 2022 / No Comments

We continue the tradition for a third year of publishing an eChapbook to celebrate Earth Day. First, we published Light in My Eyes in 2020. Then we published Lessons from the Earth in 2021.

This year to celebrate Earth Day we collect poems that share the story of water. Water is life. Water heals, nourishes, cleans, and feeds.

“In one drop of water are found all the secrets of all the oceans.” — Kahlil Gibran
