Agape Village Resident Reads Poetry in Lexington Assisted Living
Miz Rize, channels narrative stories and poems from the spirits of those human beings called "runaway slaves" who escaped the plantations of Georgia and North and South Carolina.
They found their way to Florida, to the First Free Black Settlement in Colonial America called Fort Mose. The poet has found and captured their words in the soil, on tree stumps, blowing in the breeze and bobbing in the waters that surrounds Fort Mose.
Rize calls her channeled messages "SPIRIT WRITING"
Roselyn Y. Cole, known in literary circles as Rize was born and raised on a farm in Rawlings, Virginia as Roselyn Williams. Rize poetry continues the oral tradition that was a vital part of her early childhood.
This international poet has read her poetry in South America, the Caribbean, throughout the United States and at the Library of Congress in the Nation's Capital.
In 2004 "Spirit Voices" called Rize to St. Augustine, Florida where she learned of Fort Mose, and her mission, to write Ancestors' stories.
This energetic elder poet has climbed Machu Picchu and read her poetry on the shores of Lake Titicaca in Peru and in Salvador, Brazil.
