The Joy of Poetry: Discussion Group *Accepting new members
Poetry is inspirational, intuitive, and mystical: a concise distillation of an idea. The Joy of Poetry Group welcomes all who have enjoyed or have yet to enjoy the written and the spoken word we know as a poem.
This group invites you to engage in the form and content of selected poetry and to share with your peers the poets who have moved something within you. We discuss poets from all periods, ancient to the most modern. We focus on meaning, language, images, sounds and all that which makes poetry the delightful, enriching experience it is. We meet once a month on the second Thursday from 1-3 pm by Zoom. This year for those who are zoomed-out a hybrid group of enthusiasts will meet in a private home and connect with their peers on Zoom.
Contact either Melvin Pasternak or Barbara Grant if you are interested in joining our group or might like to drop in for one of our special presentations.
With poetic joy and welcome,
Melvin and Barbara
