One of the email groups I belong to has posted the following note about celebrating Brighid with poetry for Her day, Imbolc. I remember seeing this last year and thinking it was a great idea. I must find a poem!
You are all invited to participate in the third annual poetry reading in cyberspace in honor of Brigid. Last year there was so much I couldn’t track it all, there really was a mighty web of poetry that spun out. So, if you have a blog or livejournal, please participate, and if you don’t, well, simply enjoy it. Go to my blog or someone else’s who is participating and just follow the comments and the links and see what wonders await you. Here’s the skinny:
Feel free to copy the following to your blog and spread the word. Let poetry bless the blogosphere once again!
