Now’s the last month of the year,
a time to reflect and remember
in poetry sprinkled with rhyme
Join us for Poember December!

Yay, Poember is back!!

Last year we ran Poember for the first time. We ran it in November as a month-long poetry event all about rhyme. We called it Poember November! Haha, coz it rhymes!!

It was hugely successful. So much so, that we had many contributing poets suggest we make it an annual event.

That was our plan — to run it again in November — but, oopsies, life got in the way, and guess what? It didn’t happen. 😢

Thank goodness, however, for small mercies — November and December rhyme, so we now have the chance to redeem ourselves. 😅

And here we are…

Poember December!

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves — there’s something we must attend to first and that’s thank our wonderful poets who responded to Indubala Kachhawa’s awesome October prompt, Is Reality Real?

Please take the time to savour these offerings, each one approaching the theme…
