REDMOND, WA—MARCH 21, 2007— Galit Oren shares her love of poetry in her new eBook Letter to Lucky and Other Poems. Her poetry has evoked a strong response at poetry readings hosted by the Redmond Association of SPokenword (RASP), of which Galit is a member.
A sampling of her poetry, shown below, is an excerpt from “The Day My Classmate Died”:
My teacher cried and explained that’s how she saw her
When she died.
And this is the secret
That gave me a friend for life.
Galit Oren’s heartfelt essay “Living with Scoliosis” appeared in Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul: Challenges, published in June 2006, and Letter to Lucky and Other Poems, Galit’s latest project, which she wrote during the past eleven years as she progressed from Middle School/High School at the International School of Bellevue through her current year at Western Washington University.
