The Trawler 2020

These poems have been taken (trawled) from the Gloucestershire Poetry Society group's Facebook pages.

Some of them are rough diamonds, still in need of cutting, polishing or setting, but nevertheless, they’re diamonds and of sufficient value to be included within these pages. Here are 100 poems (posted between January 2019 and May 2020) by 47 poets. Many of these poems are first drafts, some are by erudite poets, and some by people who have just begun writing, but each poem has an element - style, voice, content or passion - that called to us as we read it.

We hope you’ll enjoy these varied poems posted out of enthusiasm for the written word, some from as far away as New Zealand, Australia and the Caribbean by the following poets,

Poets in alphabetical order:

Simon Alderwick, Sally Aspden, Chris Barber, Carolyn Black, Matty Blades, Tish Camp, Jason Conway, Scott Cowley, Gemma Crow, Lucia Daramus, Sheena Dell, Z. D. Dicks, Derek Dohren, Henry Farrell, Vicky Hampton, Adam Horovitz, Jan Illingsworth, Annalisa Jackson, Chloë Jacquet, Darryl John, Adele Ogiér Jones, Kuma San, Ann-Marie Kurylak, Josephine Lay, Peter Lay, Emma Lord, Nick Lovell, Drea MacMillan, Charlie Markwick, Stephen Moore, JLM Morton, Jonathan Robert Muirhead, Viva Andrada O’Flynn, Clive Oseman, Kelly Owen, Abdul-Ahad Patel, Ben Poppy, Ben Ray, Brian Reid, Belinda Rimmer, Morgan Rye, Dave Seed, Carol Sheppard, Alby Stockley, Marilyn Timms, Trevor Valentine, Devlin Wilson

As an artist is create inspirational works of art for private and corporate clients, from full size wall graphics and installations for offices, conference areas and receptions, to cafe's and restaurants to health and wellbeing centres. Any wall or space can be transformed with large scale art, which is a key motivator for staff and can reduce work related stress.
