About this event

About the event:

The author of "Kissed by Honey Bees" will lead and evening of celebration of English poetry.

He will read from his own work as well as lead others to do the same.

There will be refreshments and opportunity for discussion.

About his work, Keith writes:

"Kissed by Honey Bees is my sixth collection of poetry and could well be described as a ‘Jumble Sale’ assortment array of knick-knack trinkets, bric-a-brac curio bargain finds and memorabilia. A gathering together of varied material written over the last few years. The only linking idea that connects one poem from the other is that of contrast, sudden divergence and diversity. The collection is peppered with various fictitious characters that bear some resemblance to real life people I’ve met along the way. Other poems verge on the satirical, cynically light hearted, fantastical and surreal.
