Poetry in Public: Places of Landing

Poems will replace advertising on public transit, enlivening commutes across King County.

Poetry in Public celebrates local voices by featuring poems written by King County residents in shared spaces. This year’s theme, Places of Landing, embraces the poetry of our daily lives. It honors the movements, places, and feelings that tell the stories of our days. Everyone can be a poet!

一心一意

when the silhouette of love unravels in our memories
when two cosmos pause in a place of familiar landing
it is then I remember you

in all the places we land
我的朋友，我的朋友
with you,
I see no one else.

one heart one love

when the silhouette of love unravels in our memories
when two cosmos pause in a place of familiar landing
it is then I remember you

in all the places we land
my friend, my friend
with you,
I see no one else.
