4th
London Poetry Festival 2008
The
4th London Poetry Festival 2007 is taking place on August 8, 9, 10 & 11:
Friday to Monday.
The
largest gathering of contemporary English poets is expected to take place.
Poet's
Letter would like to see poetry grow on the solid support of people who are
individuals choosing to practise, support, nurture and celebrate poetry as a
personal choice and therefore Poet's Letter hopes to see people stop looking at
other people and bodies to come and support and "rescue" poetry.
One
cannot see the astounding dawn where the sun spells out the spectrum of endless
joys, thrills and hopes in the astonishing brilliance, all absorbing melody and
soul flooding music if they fail to choose to open their eyes, to choose to get
up and walk, choose to open the doors and walk right onto the spectacle.
Here
is London Poetry Festival and here it would like people to choose poetry and
enabling it will to grow like an eternal tree offering us greenery and wind
dance that will elaborate our oxygenated spirit and bring us in touch with the
thrill and wonders of weather and music of life in the glorious cycle of seasons
and take us beyond the bread-bridge and launch us into a space and reality that
allows us to be something which is bigger than anything else that we could be:
being human and being alive for which our system has yet to coin up a currency.
Here is 3rd London Poetry Festival 2007 with poetry and music too: a
shared areal space of our common humanity.
