last saturday, oley valley community library hosted a poetry reading for nur alima schieBeare's first book, journey to the beloved, published in recent months by foothills publishing based in southwestern new york, a small family-run poetry press which has released the works of a good number of poets in berks county.
(celebrating national poetry month)
nur alima is known for her part in first thursday poetry open mics hosted by berks bards and has a deep magic in her language, even more so when she reads than when you see her words on the page. there may be a video from the poetry reading to update in this post later. stay tuned.
