Poetic Moments

The popular award-winning 102.3 KMRE Spark Radio feature “Poetic Moments”, original poetry spoken by the poet, produced by Shannon Laws with Chickadee Productions. These features rotated on-air throughout the day from 2013-15.  SPARK Radio was a non-profit, community station that originally broadcast out of the Spark Museum of Electrical Invention located in Bellingham, Washington. Below are samples of the feature.  Give a listen and show some love to our poets today!  The files work best if you have a Google drive.
