ROCKLAND — In celebration of National Poetry Month, Millay House Rockland is inviting poets and writers to drop in and write for a couple of hours in April and early May.

"Find a touch of inspiration in the home where Edna St. Vincent Millay was born, and set time aside for writing this month," said a news release.

Each session, a leader will provide a prompt you can use, or you can bring something you’re already working on.
