Patty the Poet goes Cheeky

The Cheeky Monkey Coffeehouse in Stroudsburg, PA presented Patty the Poet on Friday May 21st who read from her collection of poems found in her new book titled, “Patty’s Heartfelt Poetry.” The quick gentle verses lingered as each stanza was completed. Her voice proved to be an appropriate instrument as she recited one poem after another. This was deeply appreciated by a crowd of people who just wanted to hear poetry that made them smile along with some which gave them pause in order to contemplate some deep inner truths to enhance their lives.

While her book, “Patty’s Heartfelt Poetry” was available for sale during the reading, it can also be found online through Xlibris Publications. Her poem titled, A True Angel” can be found in The Forwardian Arts Society new Literary and Arts Magazine called, “Forwardian” which is free and can be found at various locations throughout the Eastern Monroe County Area.
