Greek group of poetry

Some of Greek seniors created a group of poetry. It will be a place to come, express their self, exchange ideas about Greek and Italian poems, to discuss and improve their knowledge in poetry and so much more.
The Greek poetry is a history of three thousand years. From the epics of Homeric Greece to the historical , from the romances, hymns,  to the innovative voices of a resurgent twentieth century, this group will have goals to  bring together the diverse strands of the Greek poetic tradition.
In the first meeting they discuss about poetry. How they feel about poetry . What is this?
In the second meeting they read poems of our National poet Dionysios Solomos.
