Poetry surrounds us in music, plays, prayer, and some prose. It's the most ancient form of communicating stories across generations. Yet, many of us are intimidated by "Poetry."

I decided to form this group because there are not very many book clubs on Meetup for the SLC area. For now I do not want to limit the club to a certain type of book. Instead, I would love to open it up to new fellow members as to what genre of fiction or non-fiction they would like to discuss.
