Forrest at the Poets' Corner



Forrest Orick, of riverrun, went to the Cathedral of St. John the Divine to hear a friend sing.
Forrest was fascinated with architecture and history. At the Poets' Corner he memorized each quote.

The Poets' Corner was set up in the cathedral in 1984 and "Dedicated to American Literature". Important American poets and fiction writers are added as time goes on. There is also a Poets' Wall at the cathedral where all poetry offered is accepted and posted.
