Flutes~Violins and an Inaugural Poet
Tonight I met Richard Blanco in Newcastle West.
Eileen invited me to go along and what a wonderful evening it was. Richard was
chosen by President Obama to write and read the inaugural poem for his second inauguration
in January, 2013. He is currently in Ireland as Writer in Residence for the Limerick City of Culture and visiting
writer for Limerick City and County for 2014. The event was held in Desmond
Hall.
Also, reading her poetry was Vivienne McKechnie who published her first book of poetry “A Butterfly’s Wing.” The event began and ended with music by two young local musicians Siobahn McMahon and Clare Murphy, violin and flute.
So nice to have been included in such a beautiful event
