 ss your deepest emotions\, create healthy&nbsp\;coping strategies for your

  Unique Bonds</strong></p>\n<p>The word &ldquo\;family&rdquo\; conjures im
 ages and emotions. Many times we look at family with feelings of warmth\, 
 love\, happiness\, and safety. Many times\, however\, family can bring pai
 n and frustration and flat out trauma. Families are as complicated as the 
 individuals that make them up. We&rsquo\;ll explore this through example p
 oems and our writings in this 4 part series.</p>\n<p><strong>April 10: Poe
 ms of Place</strong></p>\n<p>Poets often pay tribute to specific locations
  in their poetry\, writing praise or criticism to landscapes\, bustling ci
 ties\, or areas of historical or personal significance. Whether it&rsquo\;
 s your location or your current state of inner being\, we&rsquo\;ll explor
 e through our writings poems about various places that map our lives.</p>\
 n<p><strong>April 12: Poems that Bear Witness</strong></p>\n<p>Poetry of w
 itness argues that poets are perennial participants&nbsp\;in human history
 . Poets bear witness to historical events and their impact. In this sessio
 n\, we&rsquo\;ll explore how poetry&nbsp\;archives historic&nbsp\;experien
 ces and develop writing&nbsp\;strategies to clarify our own truths about h
 istory.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p></p>\nhttps://broward.libnet.info/event/7633907
