Group name: Poetry Writing.
Group aims: To meet and enjoy writing poetry and reading it together in pleasant company and surroundings.
One of our members, who only recently started writing poetry and won first prize in the 2025 u3a Regional Poetry Competition, has kindly offered to lead this new group. This is what he proposes:
This group will be for anyone who writes or would like to write their own poetry. The suggested format would be to meet once a month to read our poems, explain the thinking behind them, and share encouraging feedback. We could have free or themed sessions, and could collate some of our poems for online publication, with author consent - possibly an anthology of poetry of the third age.
Everyone is welcome. No prior experience required, just a willingness to have a go!
Group meetings: currently, meetings are being held on the first Monday of the month, but this may change in the near future.
