ENFIELD IN POETRY
This is a call out for poems about Enfield, both past and present.
The concept is to have a map with markers that, when clicked on, open up with a photo and brief description of the part of Enfield written about, the name of the author and title of poem and a link to an audio file of the poet, or another, reading the poem.
When live, this will be hosted on the Enfield Poets’ website.
Poets can be from anywhere, but the poem has to be relevant to Enfield in some way.
Poems this year need to be in English; as the project develops it is hoped that other languages will be included. To be included, please send

He joined a gospel group as a teenager, but the jazz and blues along the "chitlin' circuit" became his springboard to fame.
