Meeting the second Thursday each month at The Commemoration Hall

The Huntingdon Poetry Collective an open invite to one and all

When I first attended I had no idea of what to expect

I soon discovered all are treated with kindness and respect

All equally welcomed, regardless of experience, established or new

A place to read or just listen, a non-judgmental place for you to be you

Poetry can be read in silence but as a group it’s about spoken word

Celebrated classics, forgotten gems or self-penned work, all there to be heard

Individual minds that work in their own way

Shaping words that form pictures and music of what they wish to say

As varied as Dali, Lowry and Constable all there to be seen

From Rimsky Korsakov to Punk Rock and all that’s between

Various inspirations provide their start

Producing different styles and forms of art

Unconditional acceptance, an inspiring group to which anyone can belong

Embracing commonality, not differences, a place of no right or wrong
