“The Poet Society of South Carolina” was born over a hundred years ago. 
It was born in Charleston to keep its city aglow. 

Many readings and late-night meetings on King Street
seemed to make the Creations oh so sweet.

As time moved on, The Poet Society evolved. 
 Its aim is that every community be involved.
 
The taboo of the rich and famous having been left behind. 
We are opening new doors to the young and old, with Creative Minds. 

Where we go in the future is difficult to see. 
We are leaving it to the children of you and me.
