Mabeline's Poetry Corner: March 2026
The Table
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
