The Trawler 2022

All of the poems in this poetry anthology were selected (trawled) from the Gloucestershire Poetry Society (GPS) group's Facebook pages.

The Trawler 2022 is the third and final edition in the trawler series, there was always only going to be three. Here are a further one hundred and eleven poems (posted between June 2021 and May 2022) by fifty different poets. Some of these poems may be rough first drafts, still in need of polishing, but never the less, they are of sufficient value to be included within these pages. Some are by published poets, and some by people who have just begun writing, being published for the first time, but each poem has an element: a style, voice or passion that called to us as we read it.

We hope you’ll enjoy these poems, which were penned and posted with an enthusiasm for the written word. These poets come from all parts of Britain and Ireland, from France, Germany and the Netherlands, and some from as far away as the United States, Australia, India, Togo and the Caribbean.
