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.

In Praise Of Slow
to spin the world who rush and steam-
rollerthe money making scheme
with workaholic self esteem.
In hammock hung from apple bough
ideas come, it's not known how.
Inventors, poets all avow
the idling minds the one endowed.
with thought. The Newtons, Wordsworths know
the fruitfulness of going slow,
of gazing, musing, strolling so
let's pause a while and wiser grow.
Dorothy Pope
