June has been a wonderful month filled with song, poetry and art.
@ THE POET’S BRAIN
UNWIND MUSIC MONDAY
The first Monday of this month we experienced Jana Kyomoon’s lovely music for peace. JaNa KYoMoon is the owner of Music Peace Park, hear the wonderful sounds of Refelective music at the Poet’s Brain, every first Monday of the month from 6-7pm PST. Her music is best described as rhythm mixed with melody, solo piano, triphop, jazz and improvized ambient synths. You don’t want to miss it! Here is a poem I was inspired to write during her set:
[As I walk into the Abyss
I see the thin cloud of midst
Passing my face
As my heart begins to race
Uncertain to what lies ahead
All the while yearning for something to be said
By the someone whose watching me
The music has set me free
To live life with courage
And be happy with me ByLaila Tomorrow ]
STORYTELLING – STORY QUEST WITH JENAIA MORANE
Every 2nd Monday of the month was such a delight. She introduced a Quest Project that was really interesting. Helping the “Blind” to experience second life. Stay tuned for follow ups and more interesting Story Quest projects from Jenaia every 2nd Monday of the month from 6-7pm PST.
