Hello poets,
Björn here
As many say autumn is here, but there are still those warm days. Last weekend I went to Bavaria for the weekend to visit a friend working in Rosenheim.
It was still very warm with temperatures reaching almost 30 Centigrades. We spent the long weekend walking in the Austrian mountains and on Saturday we went to the big “Herbstfest” which is the autumn fest. You have probably heard about the Octoberfest which is the big event in Münich.
I managed to get hold of a pair of lederhosen which turned out to be a must for the big party if you are a man (ladies wear dirndls). I returned to a much colder Sweden and I think we are now having the last lingering days of summer which is set to end soon.
Prosit!
Now for the event. You can link up your one poem down below just like any other Open Link Night, but if you decide to join the live event we are open for you to meet with us either at 3PM EST Thursday or on Saturday at 10 AM CET.
I am trying to add a link to show you the time when the event starts if it helps you.
Remember to read an comment on the poems linked up below just like any other event. No prompt but please link back to dVerse, and have fun.

Love the pictures. You look dashing in the lederhosen! I’m not going to make it on tonight, but I will see you all Saturday. Have fun!❤️
I look forward to see you then.
Greetings Bjorn and All,
I know I don’t get here very often, but as always great to be back at dVerse… Sparkling photos. We too are having a rather delightful late summer flourish here in the south of the UK too. Will send you some pics I took today, when I’ve got them sorted out… Looking forward to some late night reading and some inspiration from you all tonight.
Great to have you here Scott… we are all on the live reading right now so I will be around a little later.
Rosenheim, so close to where I went to boarding school (Dietramszell). Great picture in Lederhosn 🙂
Lederhosen I bought in a charity shop
It’s looks like you had a great time, Björn!
It was good to see everyone today. I probably won’t make it on Saturday.
I hope you have a great Saturday anyway
Thank you! It will be good to see family.
I accidentally posted the poem I read instead of the one I meant to post. Sorry, I’m tired. 😅
We all have those days
But that’s good for us Merril…
Awww–Andrew! 🥰
hi bjorn! i’m new to the party, but posted a poem on my site today, so thought i could post my link: https://onerenrising.wordpress.com/2023/09/14/proteges-revenge/
i’m having trouble seeing other poet’s links, but will try to visit and say hi where able! thank you, ren 🙂
You look very dapper in your lederhosen! It’s always a pleasure to end up here.
I have a this annoying stutter. Worse some days than others and on odd days not at all. I can’t even read out a poem to myself in privacy at home! So taking part in live readings isn’t on the agenda. I often listen to the recordings on Youtube once it’s posted.
we do not record at the moment….
I’ll log in on Saturday if I can just to listen.
Just listening is perfect.
I really enjoyed yesterday’s readings and might come back on Saturday.
I enjoyed it too…
I enjoyed tonight very much Björn you are a very relaxed host and the pictures of you in lederhosen – priceless…
Thank you, it is certainly great to gather like this once per month.
Thank you for hosting OLN live Bjorn
Hope to see you live tomorrow
Yes, will be there – many thanks Bjorn
You lead quite nicely live, Bjørn. Ai look forward to the next session.
It is a great deal better to meet this way.
Indeed. Maybe aI should be sorry for leaving that quickly, today. Though, you see; my English is not that good. Ai cannot understand what people are reading.
Luv the pics. Glad you had a nice time.
Another lovely OLN thanks to all present
Much🖤love
We all enjoy getting together this way.
Bjorn – I love the photos – of course now I could use a nice cold Oktoberfest beer. I tried to join one of these live sessions before but, I had trouble getting in. Maybe, I will at least try to listen in tomorrow.
Hello, I think it helps if you are logged into your Google Account before clicking the link. You can decide not to include a video and just listen (or wear a digital mask)
I woke up late, is this still going on?
No we were not that many
Thanks Bjorn i tried to log in but thought it was over as it kept cycling.
