<p>This year has been a very busy one for many of the poets of The Gloucestershire Poetry Society with many having their work published in journals, anthologies and collections. This feels fitting as the theme of our poetry this year has been &lsquo;magic&rsquo; and it certainly feels that we have been under a spell. I personally have heard the comments regarding our continued efforts to promote poetry for all. The work herein is a collection of poems collated from a pool of poets of all levels and backgrounds. A collection I hope you enjoy, as much as the poets themselves as they crafted their work,</p><p>Yours in the art,</p><p>Z D Dicks</p>
