A little bit of poetry in the post for 1,000 Clare homes
May 2, 2021
ONE THOUSAND homes in East Clare received a Poetry Day surprise on Thursday (April 29), courtesy of Scariff Post Office and University of Limerick (UL) Arts Officer, Patricia Moriarty.
Across the county boundary, a further 1,000 homes will have what Patricia described as “a side serving of poetry,” with their deliveries from meals on wheels services in Limerick.
“Every year, Poetry Ireland produces Pocket Poems, where poets create work that’s printed on postcards,” Patricia explained.
