The monthly gathering of poetry lovers for "Cafe de Poetry" enjoyed lunch and shared poetry amidst this decor. (I forgot to include the "pot of gold" in the pictures)! There was a real pot of gold "candies" available throughout the past week for anyone checking out reading material from the library. Because of all the national uncertainties I will share one of the poems from this meeting. "In this uncertain world of trouble with its sorrow, sin, and strife, man needs a haven for his heart to endure the storms of life...He keeps hoping for a promise of better, bigger things, with the power and the prestige that fame and fortune bring...And the world is rife with promises that are fast and falsely spoken, for man in his deceptive way, knows his promise can be broken...But when God makes a promise it remains forever true- for everything God promises He unalterably will do ...And when you're disillusioned and every hope is blighted, recall the promises of God and your faith will be relighted." Helen Steiner Rice
