Editor’s Note Summer Poems

By Molly Hill

Summer Issue/July 2019

Poetry is thoughts that breathe and words that burn.
Thomas Gray

Dear Readers and Writers,

Our summer issue is small but mighty, and goes well with a frappuccino, or a DQ Blizzard. It’s a perfect read for the hammock, beach towel or lawn chair and best enjoyed when you’re supposed to be doing something else. (no reading at the red light tho…)

For those who say they don’t “get poetry,” we invite you (don’t turn back now!) to scroll through this issue because we think you’ll change your mind. These young writers reflect on relationships, family, feelings, politics, and identity among other things. Chances of coming across something poignant and relatable are quite good.

Off you go!

Happy summer—

Molly Hill
Editor
