STANZA MAR MENOR POETRY MEETING OF FRIDAY 22ND JUNE 2012

We met as usual in San Javier and the five of us, Kathy, Margaret, David, Douglas and John
read various poems that had been written in the recent weeks.

Sestudes-either in their restrictive form or with a more liberal interpretation- were read by the majority. Of course, comments were made and advice given. That is the strength of this group and I think that this shows in much of the work being written.

Haiku were also the order of the day with many being presented.

Douglas capped our morning with a poem that he had written a few decades ago and which he thought would be suitable for our next ‘open mic’. (ON MONDAY 25TH JUNE AT 7.30PM) This one is called ‘And No Birds Sing’ and to hear it you will have to come along next Monday evening when he will read it.

We will now have a summer break and the next stanza meeting has been set for Friday 28th September and the autumn ‘open mic’ evening will be held in October. We will finalise the date on Monday evening next. I will write this up so that everyone will know what has gone on.

Have a productive and enjoyable summer. Keep well and have fun.
