Poetry Connection: Armijo students write from the heart (dailyrepublic.com)

You can send Ms. Suzanne Bruce poems for this column, “The Poetry Connection.” She will soon be making a choice for the November 6 publication.

Poems must be sent to her at [email protected] by October 15. She will select one poem for each month. Also with the submission, please include a short introduction about yourself, such as if you are a student, where and why you enjoy writing poetry.

Poems must be 39 lines or less, contain no profanity and written within the Daily Republic guidelines of material suitable for publication. Please type poems in Times New Roman 12 font, black ink on white paper. Also, do not have any pictures or photographs with the poem. Lastly, remember to put your name at the bottom of the poem.

Because the paper can only publish one poem per month, (maybe two if they are very short), Ms. Bond has permission to hang submissions not printed in the newspaper at The Coffee Bar,
740 Texas Street, in downtown Fairfield. She will mount them on foam core and take them in to
hang them on the shop walls.

She looks forward to hearing from you and eager to have this “Poetry Connection” monthly as well as The Coffee Bar to display poems as opportunities to have poetry more accessible to residents of Fairfield. There are some hanging there now already!
