Try & Maybe Succeed Ep 2 Poetry

Poetry has given us some of the greatest litary work of all time. With poets beautifully managing to capure emotions and marvelously translating them into poems that live on forever holding deep profound meaning to hearts around the world

Sean never learnt (Listened) about Poetry in school and is keen to understand what makes a poem and can anyone write one. In this challange Sean decides to try his hand at writing his own poem and debuting it infront of a live audience at the Poetry Cafe.

He speaks to author and Poet John O'Donoghue about the workings of a poem and to the Poetry society about why The Poetry Cafe venue is still attracting poetry fans old and new.

And as always Richard is backing his dear friend who he fully respects and knows full well that he will master this challange and may be considered a modern shakespeare...or maybe John Cooper Clarke.
