Poetry Cafe

Poetry Cafe

We share a love of poetry and we want everyone to have their turn. We don’t judge; we don’t criticize; we simply enjoy sharing words . The evening starts at 7pm. Those who want to read to others are given a number at the door. All numbers go into the “hat” and are drawn out at random. If it is your number, it is your turn.

Come along and share your words with us. 

Sharing words

 Poetry Cafe

Come along for an evening of poetry and chat. Read your own work or bring your favourite poem.

All cultures have their own poets and poetry. Poetry is a way of communicating ideas, images and feelings.  Through poetry we can explore beauty, express a truth or describe an event. Poems use language to challenge, delight and entertain. Poetry can also create a sense of community.

Come along for an evening of poetry and chat. Read your own work, share your favourite poem by your favourite poet or simply come and listen.

Tea,  coffee (and the occasional snack)  provided  or bring your own bottle and/or nibbles.
