This photo was taken on the 16th August 2008 when Andrew Burke kindly stepped in to host “Poetic Partners” at the my second to last Poets Corner@Pages Cafe monthly events.
He put together a mind-blowing-ly amazing list of guests; all very well established practitioners who agreed to share their words as poetic partners in life, love and poetry:
Glen Phillips & Rita Tognini;
Andrew Taylor & Beate Josephi;
Frances Arnett Sbrocchi & N.J (Jim) Cornish;
Marcella Polain & Mike Williams.
Each have their own clear, poetic voices were an absolute delight to hear and watch. I just wish I had recorded it for you…
As usual, Andrew Burke did an amazing job as host but also appeared as a guest at the following and last Poets Corner event on the 18th October 2008, this time hosted by Andrew Landsdowne.
His newest book “One Hour Seeds Another” was officially launched in fine style last week to an appreciative Perth audience, by his friend and fellow poet, Andy Jackson.
I had to pinch this quote: “too much cinnamon/and not enough/metaphor” from Andrew Burke and his poem “She Waits for Me” included in his latest book “One Hour Seeds Another”.
