Meeting Highlights for August 10, 2023


Attendees: Pete, Suzy, Valia, Alan and Patty

Valia read his new poem, 'Supermoon Rising' It was sent to the Rattle via Submittable. Poem was written while Valia was in New York on the event of the August super moon on Aug 8. Valia also shared information about India, its many languages and customs.

Pete delighted us with two more of his riddle poems: First one was about the Statue of Liberty, the second, all about Babe Ruth. We discussed artwork regarding his poems and how it would give hints for answers with pictures. He has nearly 35 poems about things and 15 about people.

Alan read two poems in his 'Retribution Poetry' series. First title: The Woeful Tale of Eli Jones, to become part of his newly formed Pioneer Series. The second one, and it was the funniest, and personally, the best poem I think Allan has written. The work, 'Defending the Male Wolf' was written especially for Karen Kulinski. He has taken fairy tales to a new height.

Suzy read the delightful, magical continuing short story tale of Mrs. Walters. In this chapter Mrs. Walters enchants a car that can drive itself. :)

Patty read Chapter Eight of the never-ending saga of Vienne. The members gave many great suggestions for changes.

Our goal was to end by 8:30, so the discussions began as soon as we ordered. We accomplished a lot, laughed even more, and the meeting promptly ended by 8:28.

Next Meeting: September 14, 2023 at 6:30 at Rosati’s.
