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.

Spring Day In London

Lakes of daffodils in Green Park
cushion the lunching couples
floodlight wedding guests
drifting to receptions at the Ritz.

At the Royal Academy
rugged Aztec gods grimace,
flights of lost humming birds
weave mosaics with effulgent feathers.

Dancers sway and flame
like candles, casual as fire
patterning to music
and a drum's decree.

A peerless sky all day
the city smiling
strangers speaking.
IT'S WAR

Newspapers shriek
minds darken
early bullets whistle
through desert air

Flotillas of planes
converge screaming
on citizens

Sand-blinded soldiers
crouch in tanks
heat stifled.

Fear in the throat.

Is he there?
