Interested to join the Poetry Club and its weekly Wednesday poetry reading list consisting of your published Medium poems? See the link at the end of the reading list for more information.

The Poetry Club was created with the aim of enjoying, and appreciating the skills, and knowledge of poets who are willing to read each other’s poems and to engage with each other.

Reading list expectations for participants

Please read, or listen to, all the poems until the end. It will be great to engage with the poets by leaving a comment.

If you have previously read the poem shared in this list, please visit the writer’s profile and choose an alternative poem to read.

Becca CO 🌵:
“I’ve looked to the sky and see nothing but vast emptiness filled with burning gas and floating rock.
Looking up brings me down. I feel the weight of loneliness upon my shoulders because I ask, “What purpose do I have here?”
