I'd like to start off by thanking everyone who came out last Wednesday. I had lots of fun. I was a little worried when early on there were only 2 names on the sign-up sheet for the open mic. But in the end it all came together.
Some wonderful ladies from a former poetry group in Milton came out. Thank you to Jenny and Nancy for reading your work. I espcially loved Nancy's political humour poem. because let's face it, if you can't laugh at politics & politicians we are in a sad state of affairs.
We were also surprised by a few younger people taking the stage. I'm sure everyone loved this because it meant I didn't have to fill time with my own poetry. Ha ha ha. Just kidding.
Speaking of which, don't forget to 'Save The Date' for Kay'la Fraser on Wednesday September 21st. She might have a gentle demenur and soft voice but she commands your attention when she is on stage with a strong message and captivating ways of saying them.
But remember, this event is for YOU! So dig out , originals, rants, raps, lyrics, a capella, storytelling, stand-up, or poetry and sign up for the open mic. Because it's all about putting WORDS IN ACTiON.
Until next time...
...Spread the word!
