Reading & Writing Groups

In Powell River

Literature, poetry, novels and intellectual tomes are integral to any society and, like all forms of art, it takes the symbiotic relationship of both writers and readers to make it work.

There is no room within my heart for revenge, fire or hate

There is no room within my mind for any thoughts like these.

I cannot find the words to say just how it is I feel, but I know from deepest hurt I must forgiveness find.

The hurt that’s been done to us cuts sore like a knife, but we must not repay in kind what has been done to us.
