POEMS - SHARED AND READ
January 22 2021
This is a space to think and talk about the place of poetry in our lives and the poems that move us.
Facilitated by Emma Stroker
'In this time when grief pours freezing over us,
When the hard light of pain gleams at every street corner,
When those who were pillars of that day's gold roof
Shrink in their clothes; surely from hunger
We may strike fire, like fire from flint?
And our strength is now the strength of our bones
Clean and equal like the shine from snow
And the strength of famine and of our enforced idleness
And it is the strength of our love for each other.'
- Stephen Spender
