Welcome To Our Website
We are a friendly local poetry group that meets on
the third Sunday of each month to read our own
poetry, listen to others’ poetry and talk about poetry.
Meetings take place on the third Sunday afternoon of
the month starting at 2.00 o'clock and finishing at
approximately 5.15. In December we meet on the
second Sunday.
They are held in the library of Orley
Farm School, South Hill Avenue, Harrow, Middx.
The nearest tube station is South Harrow. There is no
access by car from the South Harrow end of South
Hill Avenue. Entrance to the library is by a door
round to the left of the building.
Fancy yourself as a poet?
Come and listen or read your own verse. This local
poetry group started in 1992. Visitors £3.00.
For further details and before coming telephone
0208 864 3149.
Below we will be placing some of our latest verse as tasters.

My Violin
My Fiddle may not be a Strad
but still its tone is not too bad
It’s not too coarse, nor yet too thin,
the music of my violin.
My father for a modest fee
purchased the instrument for me,
with hopes his evenings would begin
with music on my violin.
Its former owner practiced till
he knew it was beyond its skill,
no hours of practising would win
sweet music from the violin.
No, really? Must you go so soon?
Please wait until I play a tune
That’s sad and suitable to fin-
ish up with on my violin.
John Waddell
