Poem Request Jar

Welcome to the poem request jar!

Every season, the participants in our Lift Off poetry workshop use requests from the public to inspire new poems. If you have a request, fill it in here and we’ll add it to our jar. If we choose your name, we’ll email you the poems we write.

We clear the jar and start fresh each season.

Here’s to the ways that poems connect us all!

~ The poets of Firefly

Would you like to share your name? (This is optional.)

First Name

Last Name

Let us know your email so that we can send you the poems if we pick your request.

Just making sure we're on the same page: If you make a request here we'll pop it in a jar. We'll randomly choose from the jar over the course of our Lift Off poetry class. If your request is chosen, a small group of poets will interpret it however they like and write you poems, and then we'll send you the ones they want to share via email. Your request may or may not be chosen. All good?

Yes, got it.

Okay lay it on! Aim for 3-6 sentences to spell out what you need a poem for and why.
