Capicuuuuuu! Does it Again!

Once again, Capicu Poetry does what Capicu Poetry does best...they put on a great show. The stage was blessed with talent after talent. From the veterans to novices the night turned out to be uplifting. I am not a poet but being among all the talent brings out a feeling of wanting to participate just the same. Again, I walk away from a night of Capicu Poetry feeling inspired. Capicu....does it again! Some of those who came through....

Capping off the evening was featured poet Jani Rosado, while holding her own as an agent at image Cultura she held it down with her poetry for Capicu. Check out her site: Musings and Scribbles.

I usually sound off with the words "pa que lo disfruten" but if you haven't been to a Capicu event then you've obviously missed out...this time around it's "te lo perdiste!"
