ZOOMING WITH THE 1000 MONKEYS IN DECEMBER 2023

The last 1000 Monkeys of 2023

December 5th's meeting of The 1000 Monkeys was well attended and we enjoyed a range of poems — we've posted videos of all of them here. We were sorry that Tony Watts and Peter Taylor were both unable to come along for health reasons and we wish them good health over Christmas and the New Year.

These video clips will give you a taste of the poems we heard on Tuesday 5th December. As far as their subject matter's concerned, among them you'll find a dog of complex ancestry verging on the monstrous, a selection of trees, hopscotch in Canterbury, a declaration of love, noises in the night, mermaid socks, a letter to Santa pleading for the stars, age(ing) concern, a dream of Thumbelina children, a demobbed soldier father, a request to London to slow down a bit, a beautiful night landscape and a lane whose hedges have little to say for themselves....  

And there's more to come next year, beginning on January 2nd, 2024.
