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.

Those Feet (With apologies to William Blake)
tread England's grasses sandal-shod
or is this mere idea, caught
in wishful thinking's web? He's trod
the walkways of the mind of man
world-wide for centuries and so
to want him here in Avalon
is natural but can we know?
The facts add up and there are years
of His life unaccounted for.
A thorn tree for his crown of tears
is rooted on this English shore.
The rational remain aloof.
"It's possible," our minds admit,
"though only that for lack of proof,"
Yet instinct clamours, "I know it."
Dorothy Pope
