Poetry Circle is an open Circle

Of Born and Unborn Poets

Whether Visiting or Local, it’s Universal

It’s not a class

For Poetry from the Heart

Is an Art

Bring a Poem

Lay down a Theme

And enjoy the art of Sharing

Through Writing

 

There will be a reserved table at dinner for Poetry Circle.

Dinner – at 6:30pm – is by donation; suggested donation $7 – $10.
