Fingerprints in Poetry - A Celebration of 21st Century Poets

Writers' Village University is please to present "Fingerprints in Poetry," in honor of National Poetry Month.

This online exhibit was put together to highlight the legacy and ongoing achievement of poets everywhere, to introduce a larger audience to the pleasures of reading poetry and to bring poets and poetry to public attention.

The exhibit features the work of ten poets from four countries: the United States, Canada, the Philippines and Germany. The poets whose work will be exhibited are Gwen Austin, Glennis Hobbs (Glenda Walker-Hobbs), Jeanette (Janice) Oestermyer, Rolly delos Santos, Christine Bloom, Maureen (Mo) Swanson, Sarah Sloat, Lana Wiltshire Campbell, Helen V. Lundt, and Helen Montgomery. These poets are members of the Senior Poets’ Workshop at WVU.

The poetry features a cross section of work and covers a variety of topics from historical events, family life, travel, city life, poetic journals, spirituality, nature, and death. Each reader has his or her own unique poetic fingerprints and the reader will have a chance to find those distinctive fingerprints.

The exhibit can be viewed here during the month of April and is accessible to everyone.
