We are a group of poets who meet monthly to share our poems, give feedback and socialise. The group was founded in 1977 and has published the anthology Kites, containing member poems, every other year since then. Last year we brought out our 25th anthology, Kites 2010, which is available in local bookshops and at the Poetry Library.
