We have some very talented poets in our group, so I hope they enter. I would love to see Camilla's angry watch poem published, for example, or one of Caroline's pieces - the one about the women in hijabs doing circuit training with the woman in top-to-toe lyrca has stayed with me. Those juxtaposed images were very memorable.
I agree! I'm no poet but we certainly do have some talented poets amongst us. It would be lovely if they entered the competition and were featured in any ensuing anthologies! even better if they won!
