The Poetry Business Online Workshop: Poetry of Childhood, Time, and Change with Romalyn Ante
In this generative workshop, we will explore the shifting landscapes of memory through poetry.
We'll reflect on moments of childhood—its wonder, confusion, and discovery—and trace how time reshapes our understanding. Through guided prompts, readings, and discussion, you'll write new poems that dive into the emotional depths of growing up, looking back, and moving forward.
