Words From The Wall

Poets with Parkinson’s is an international collective of creative writers who are all living with Parkinson’s disease and who also share a love of poetry. The Poets’ Wall has been our online home since 2022 where we showcase our work, support each other, and coordinate activities like Open Mic events and Poetry Workshops. During 2023 the Wall featured more than 1000 original poems. This book contains a small sample of the talent and creativity nurtured within our supportive community that year.

This anthology includes 80 pieces of poetry from poets in ten countries (Canada, England, Germany, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Scotland, Switzerland, USA, Wales) and features a wide variety of styles from haiku to sonnets, and comic verse to bitter realism. There is something in this collection for every reader.
