What is it?

* We read a poem
* We discuss the poem
* Only the poem we've read.
* No Jargon
* No experience needed
* Nothing to fear
* Nothing but the poem.

A relaxed and informal way to meet and discuss a poem.

Please come along regardless of if you like poetry or not. These sessions are designed to offer a new way of looking at and enjoying poetry.
Hope to see you there!

Thank you Ryan. I enjoyed it. The best thing for me was to be able to say what I thought without fear of making a fool of myself and on top of that seeing that sometimes I had the same point of view as other people.

I remember the sessions we had at school that were so ever dry, like trying to swallow a piece of very hard wood: all structure, no spirit, and certainly no joy.

Another very interesting aspect of it was realizing how we interpret things depending on the culture we come from, such as the 'legends' or the references to 'science fiction'... And also the interpretations due to age difference....
