Not
only a writer of prose, Margaret Macpherson is also
a poet, with a poet's soul. She has hundreds of serious
poems and is in the process of collecting them into
a form where they can be published. Margaret is a member
of Edmonton's Stroll of Poets and also an infrequent
reader in Edmonton's premier performance poetry venue,
The Backroom Vodka Bar. While Macpherson has yet to
hold a glass of vodka to her tender poet lips, she has
quaffed a couple of beers and sipped the occasional
glass of vino tinto before embarking on live performances
of original poetry backed-up by the unbelievably talented
improv jazz band The Raving Poets. Margaret has had
a few of her poems published in small magazines.
In
a less introspective vein, she is also considered one
of E-towns finest composers of doggerel verse and she
has performed countless rhyming couplets for individual's
birthdays, wedding, official park openings and school
concerts. Got a friend? Don't know what to get them
for their birthday/anniversary/graduation?? Call
on Macpherson - the well-versed woman - to do
an original composition that you can present as a truly
unique gift. There's a fee but an original poem is a
keeper and you can even claim to have written it yourself!
This idea is only an e-mail
away. (margaret@margaretmacpherson.com)
