Local poets have until March 1 to submit their work to a new competition at Bath’s Patten Free Library.

The contest is a new addition to the Library Park Poetry Walk, which will run for the second time this April.

Competitors from the library’s service area should submit a 1-12 line poem with a hopeful or springtime theme to the library’s website by March 1. The contest will have divisions for under-18 and over-18 authors.

Winning poets will see their work featured during the Library Park Poetry Walk in April.
