These monthly gatherings are casual, friendly and welcoming of newcomers.
You don’t need to recite your own works, or the works of other writers, though you can if you want to. You don’t have to follow the chosen theme of that month’s meeting, but you can if you want to. We meet, we nibble, we sip, we laugh, we recite.
We simply share the joy of poetry in whatever form we like. From rhyming-couplets, to whimsical tales of our own histories, to daydreams described, to the silliest nonsense you have ever heard, to the social commentary, to the darkest depths of the broken hearts.
Of an evening, there is more chatter than poetry and that’s the way we like it. Good people sharing a good time, and everyone is welcome.
