Pen to Paper

Older folk are treasure houses when it comes to stories and memories having a lifetime of experience to draw on. This collection of poems stories recollections and reflections gives us a slice of many lives and sensibilities. Some pieces evoke an era that seems light years from today yet only yesterday. Others allow us to imagine what it might be like to stand in someone else's shoes - or bare feet! There is sadness joy anger humour and insight. In the words of one of the members: Please enjoy the writings of our group in this book and perhaps be inspired to put pen to paper yourself. Ruth Carr tutor.
