A Rhyme and Reason at the Cottage
On February 28th, nine Fraser Valley Poets Society members gathered with residents and outside guests at the Cottage (a Fraser Health complex in Abbotsford) to enjoy a shared love of poetry.
Poetry Society members and residents took turns reading to the crowd. We heard original poetry as well as old favourites. It was a wonderful hour of sharing words and friendship.
A big thanks to Terry Broadworth who organized the program and was our MC for the morning.

First Open Mic of 2015
Two days later, on Monday, March 2nd, we gathered again to officially get our reading year underway with an Open Mic evening.
The whole evening was given to reading our work. We circled the table at least three times. It was especially gratifying to welcome some new poets to the reading.
It was a good start and we’re looking forward to a great year of Blue Moon readings and open mics.
