Heroic Eco-Sonnet Reading: Community Reading with South Florida Poets

A live online reading of the Heroic Sonnet Crown written by 28 local poets celebrating Miami-Dade County.

“There’s a wave coming. One can hear it in the sky." is an Eco-Sonnet Crown (15 eco-sonnets by 28 Miami-Dade and neighboring poets) written in tribute to Mayor Daniella Levine Cava and the residents of Miami-Dade County. Conceived and edited by poets Maureen Seaton and Nicole Tallman, this Crown was written by 28 local poets over the summer of 2022. We hope this project inspires our readers to be even greater stewards of our planet.
