QUAKER ANNUAL MEETING 2017
by Thomas Hoskyns Leonard
Shades of Warwick; Sent to Coventry
The 1800 meet in silence
And conspire how to put the world to right.
George Lakey devises strategy to turn the tide
Cath West MP tackles inequality
Molly the Green MEP on Brexit and Blair.
Business meetings eight Quaker ceremony celebrate
Breakfast in Rootes enhances the greatest debate
Light shows and lark and owl worship abound
A Catholic archbishop reels in his line
As our joint campaigns work out fine
And we with others do dine.
A multitude of new friendships without ne-er e-er any pretension
The silent LGBT with the greatest of pride
The words of the living God coalesce in might
Inspirational Epistle deplores way world is getting trashed.
Many are too rich; we add fuel to the problem
Public protests and civil disobedience are sternly advocated.
The last night ceilidh in Rootes says it all
As diverse adults and thoughtful children go to the ball.
And Debbie and Alex (the saxophonist) from St. Albans?
I'll meet you next year in a thrall.
GEORGE LAKEY (Wiki)
