    Charles Freyberg has been a Poetica devotee since our summer nights at Speakeasy Bar in Bondi in 2018 when we were looking for our next home. Fast forward to 2026 and Charles has written several poetry books, performed many times and now he joins us with his latest offering "Sacred Remnants." But please read poems and write poems. Yes, we have the grand old open mic this Thursday night at Poetica Petit at @woollahragallery ! Poets you are welcome to share your words. Theme this month is POSTCODES. 3 mins max. Tell us about a place you know. Maybe you lived there. Maybe you dream of going there. Next Thursday we have a big glorious night at Poetica with the book launch of Yvette Henry Holt’s new book of poems, who will be in conversation with @michele_seminara . Plus we have @donleaton playing some soulful tunes for us. You might recognize Don from @thevoiceau back in 2016! Well I found Don singing a tune in the garden at @cafeonefourthree a couple of months ago and had no idea who he was but I like his vibe and his sound so I invited him to Poetica. What a glorious workshop today. I guess using a book of happy poems as a prompt was a good idea … Join us this Friday at 10am at @163clovelly to write poems. To listen to poems. To share words. Miriam opens the workshop with a guided meditation to bring you in to the room gently and with purpose. Last chance to join us tonight for our second listening of Carole King’s sublime and perfect album TAPESTRY. Yvette Henry Holt + Carole King + Don Leaton + Poems as Prompts SWIPE ACROSS ... These workshops and events were just uploaded today and the Carole King album nite is nearly sold out. Just saying ...
