Boston Weekend Vibes: Şafak Serez Brings Poetry to the Outdoors

Boston, MA — This past weekend, international poet and author Şafak Serez joined friends and readers in Boston for a relaxed countryside-style day outdoors. It wasn’t a formal event, but rather a chance to enjoy nature, share poems, and spend quality time together.

The group blended a casual nature walk with laughter, conversation, and impromptu poetry readings under the open sky. Attendees described it as “a day where literature met friendship and nature — something light, warm, and unforgettable.”

Rather than a structured program, the day unfolded like a gathering among friends. Some enjoyed short readings from Serez’s published works, while others simply took in the scenery, shared stories, and let the rhythm of poetry set the tone for the afternoon.

“Poetry doesn’t always belong to a stage,” Serez noted with a smile. “Sometimes it belongs to the grass, the breeze, and the laughter of friends.”

The countryside-style outing reflects Serez’s philosophy of keeping literature close to everyday life — not only in books and libraries, but also in the spontaneous, joyful moments that define community
