Following a short presentation on the Sonnet as a poetic form, this will be a themed Open Meeting.

The Sonnet has been a popular form for many poets from Shakespeare to Jamaican poet Claude McKay of the Harlem renaissance poets.

So bring some of your favourite sonnets or better still, write a sonnet for the occasion.

Or just come and listen and enjoy the poetry.

Do Lyrics and Poetry overlap? Are Lyrics poems set to music?
