Bob Stephens returns to Poetry from Daily Life Free Video Library

Hi everyone,

Friend and colleague BOB STEPHENS joined Poetry from Daily Life Free Video Library with his second recording. His first column in the newspaper series was on January 14, 2024, his second, on September 14, 2025. Now both are preserved in the free video library. Here is the link to Bob’s second recording. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiozrJKN1l0

Bob Stephens lives in Springfield, Missouri and was mayor of the city from 2012-2017. Bob is a man of many talents and writing poetry is one of them. He combined his passion for poetry with his organizational skills to form The Bards of Moon City, a group of local poets, and book them to give poetry readings all over town, in April (National Poetry Month) and any other time an audience gathers. He has authored two books of political essays, published a poetry chapbook, co-authored a book of poetry with Lora Knight, published a memoir entitled Accidental Odysseys, and is currently editing his fourth poetry anthology by the Bards of Moon City.
