The nature center publishes poems for online listening and personal reading on local news

OGDEN – At the end of the Earth Month, the Ogden Nature Center embellished its paths with nature-related poems. The poems will be published on trails throughout the center by May 19th.

For those unable to cross the trails, the Ogden Nature Center also has a virtual version of the event with recorded videos of community members reading the poems.

“Some are poetry professionals, some are community leaders, and some are youngsters with extra personality!” Read a press release from the middle. “Four wrote their own verses.”

Readers include Ogden City Mayor Mike Caldwell, Ogden’s poet award winner Abraham Smith, the city’s first poet award winner, and current Weber State University professor Brad Roghaar, elementary school students, and others.

There are a total of 13 poems, four of which were written by participants and one of which is read in Swahili.
