Last night I went to a Poetry Reading for a Charity here and was very impressed with the poems written by the member of the local poets group.Unfortunately, being in the South of England the people were not that friendly to a newcomer.I didn’t see anyone I knew.But, at least I went to it.I look forward to going to their regular meetings.I forgot my husband was not here when I crossed the road because I had left the lights on.Still, it would have been a shock if he was.I miss him so much.
How my heart sings 
I read your comment about the workshop idea and that sounds really good – I like when places do a merge and greet with an ice breaker activity – it makes the interaction short – but effective as folks at least drop one layer – anyhow the meeting sounds nice and is the drawing in this post your work?
Thank you for that comment.Yes,I did the drawing a few years ago.
Thx 😊
Sounds like a good meeting. If the standard is good and you persevere, I’m sure you’ll start to feel more ‘involved’
I might prefer a workshop type of meeting but I shall try to go to again.Some of them were visitors I think
