Reading of Light Verse Online Today
This is short notice, but if any of you would like to see an online poetry reading on Sunday (today) at 2:00 p.m. (Central Time) or 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) or 8:00 p.m. in the UK, here is a link. I am one of six readers (including Bruce Bennett, Dan Campion, Susan de Sola, Nicole Caruso Garcia, and Wendy Sloan), and each will be reading for just six minutes, all light verse:

I've just come from that meeting, and it was MARVELLOUS! I loved seeing some old friends, and putting faces to names.
It was my first attendance, but I'm reading for 6 minutes in two weeks' time.
Thank goodness for Zoom... and for Melissa with her Light Brigade!!!

Jayne, it was great to see you there. I had an error in my listed line-up, based on an earlier message, so actually Alexandra Oliver read instead of Wendy Sloan. The reading was a lot of fun.

Susan, your poem about fall/autumn made me cry laughing! I really loved it, ...and everything else you read. (Could you PM me a copy of that one please?)
The Zoom gathering was indeed a lot of fun. I can't wait for next Sunday... and the Sunday after...I've got to decide what to read on the 14th.
Thanks for making me laugh, Susan, more than I've done in a good while.

Jayne, It will be a pleasure to catch you and the rest of that week's line-up. Melissa has been putting together a great series of readings, and your episode is one to look forward to. I had to miss the first two installments (because of prior commitments with other Zoom readings!), but Light has posted the recorded versions, so I'm all caught up and ready for the weeks ahead.

It was lovely to actually see you, Chris, since we've been online friends for a good many years! I would have liked to chat to lots of people who were there, but it would take hours if we all did that.
Tonight was my first ''Light'' Zoom meeting, so I'll have to look at the recorded ones I've missed. What fun it all was, and I haven't laughed so much in a long time.
See you next Sunday.

The Light Verse in Dark Times readings are now online at THIS YOUTUBE CHANNEL.
Many Spherians have read these past Sunday afternoons. One more event -- next Sunday, June 14.
It was so nice to see and hear so many old friends, and finally to see and hear others for the first time.
Thank you to Melissa Belmain and her team!
