Poems From The Old Squash Court Caf: Wimborne Stanza Read Their Poems

The Wimborne Stanza are part of The Poetry Societys nationwide Stanza network, which connects poets across the UK.

The event will include some discussion about the writing process.

Their book Poems from the Old Squash Court Caf is a collection which brings together the vivid, contemporary poems from the Group, in a sequence shaped by place, memory, and the quiet strangeness of everyday life.

Wimborne Stanza hope the poems in their anthology speak for themselves, but also speak volumes about our world, ourselves and what inspires us poetically.

Here you will find poems about Chesil pebbles and Portland stone; concerns for the planet and for the displaced; conversation overheard and with ourselves; runners in parks and dancers in mid-leap; unstitchings and AI glitches; swamps, shrews and grey, ravelled sheep.
