Story and Poem of the Week and Inspiration Point

What a week it's been for cherries - I've had to scroll through pages of them! My choice for Story of the Week is quite a long one but please don't let that put you off - it's one of the best things I've read on ABCTales for a while:  'All Architects Are Called Zach' by Mark Burrow. My Poem of the Week is the beautiful 'XIX' by john_silver. Big congratulations to both!
