The Body Poetic for Arts for the Aging (Fall 2025) On September 8, 2025, as a teaching artist for Arts for the Aging, certified poetry therapist Lauren Mazow Boyle and I presented a series of workshops entitled "The Body Poetic: Exploration through Indian Dance and Poetry".
We explored Rabindranath Tagore's poem "And in wonder and amazement I sing'. Below is a small excerpt of the poetry that participants made: "Same as before, it invites my thoughts. My father coming home- Pick me up! I’m home! What about the things that are missing? Don’t forget them. The trees above, the blue sky, fluffy white clouds,As I lie on the grass. Don’t forget me. Come home."
