Mabeline's Poetry Corner: March 2026

We gather at the table

For many different things

To play board games with family

To discuss plans and dreams

A table can be featured

In a variety of places

The kitchen, the patio,

And the dining space

What would a restaurant be

If no table were in sight?

No rounds, no squares,

It would certainly change the hype

Like, where would you tell

Your friends to meet you

And where would the waiters

Come to greet you?

Tables can be celebrated

While empty or full

Paired best with chairs

And favorite FOODS.

Mabeline hosts and promotes a variety of community building programs that focus on the Art of Healing through poetry and writing, including Live Poetry at Cafe 7-10 and The Poetry X-Change at Werner Books and Coffee. She can be reached at gamewithmabel@gmail.com
