A chime sounds, and a voice enters the quiet circle of listeners.

A chime sounds, and a voice enters the quiet circle of listeners. Poems in a quiet pool invites participants to bring poems (by you or someone else) to share. Seated in a circle, each participant reads, in turn, one poem – no introduction or commentary, just the poem. There is a moment of quiet attention while listeners absorb the words. Then the next reader speaks.
