About this course

Timed to coincide with this year’s annular solar eclipse on June 10, this single session course celebrates the bold energy of the Sun. Using sun poems and other sun inspiration to get us started, this course aims to help you draft some sun-influenced work of your own. The session is particularly suitable for beginners, but those who have some experience are also welcome.   


We will use a variety of poems and visual prompts to kickstart your poems that speak in the natural language of today. We will look at how to find poems close to home or those drawn from memory – or imagination. By the end of the session you will have tried out 2-3 named forms of poems.  


See Write Me to the Moon for the companion course on Wednesday 26 May.


You will need a notepad and pen


As this course is online, a suitable device such as laptop, smart phone, tablet or computer will be required to access the course.  Zoom will be used for the live sessions and the link will be sent to you once your enrolment has been completed.
