Stunning poem @poetbex.bsky.social published in the wonderful @rialtopoetry.bsky.social

Leavin Meta slowly for the Sky, as we all will in time. Meanwhile, to prove it is me here’s a new poem I recently published in @rialtopoetry.bsky.social Dedicated to friend David Kinloch and to the toun of Dunkeld.

My poem '55' is in the latest issue of @rialtopoetry.bsky.social!

Rialto 102: blog from Esther Morgan Thoughts on ‘MIDSUMMER’ by Iona Carmine Roisin. www.therialto.co.uk/pages/2025/0...

I adored this tragic poem from @poetbex.bsky.social in the current @rialtopoetry.bsky.social

Pages 36-37 of the new @rialtopoetry.bsky.social are especially pleasing - poems by Matthew Caley and @drlauravarnam.bsky.social

Loving this from @hannahl1n.bsky.social in the current issue of @rialtopoetry.bsky.social

Thank you for including me in this beautiful issue @rialtopoetry.bsky.social

With sorrow we mark the death of the great Irish poet Michael Longley. He published more than a dozen collections of poetry, the most recent, Ash Keys, on his 85th birthday. He lived in Belfast and I like his description of himself as a ‘sentimental disbeliever’.

Everyone’s a critic eh.

Admittedly pretty niche, but here’s my Paradise Lost-y poem from @rialtopoetry.bsky.social 87, to celebrate John Milton’s birthday

Rialto 102 is with the distributor and will be shipping after Christmas. We had hoped to get it out before, but some ‘faffing about’ occurred which hindered an otherwise faultless timeline.

Congrats from all of us at Rialto Towers to George Szirtes for his award of the HM Gold Medal for poetry 2024.

Also while I think about it Rialto 102 is on its way. If all goes according to plan it should be ready for distribution before Christmas.

If you’ve appeared in The Rialto, please come and say hello, we’d like to try and connect up all the bits of our poetry community and get some sense of who is using what platform, maybe even do a Started Pack or two. Seems like a good starting point.

Right you lovely little lot, guess what… We’ve only gone and launched the Nature and Place Poetry competition for 2025. Go and have a gander. Please re-whatever they’re called on here, much appreciated. Please also share around on other platforms. Ta very much. www.therialto.co.uk/pages/nature...
