My stories

Void

Taking an idea, that of the voidness of some lives, into a poem.

A Shovel's Weight

My father - a coal miner told us once, that he carried the weight of his family on his shovel. He was also an admirer of D H Lawrence - coming from the same area; and I thought I'd give Arthur Lawrence some recognition for supporting his family in like manner.

Mariangel

Change, as it affects us as we age; though here, I'm entirely in sympathy with the lady portrayed.

Affirmation

An exercise; taking a poem, this being Affirmation by Donald Hall, then keeping the basic form, and recasting it, then revising it further, to see how far it is from the original. I must get out more!

My Favourite Day

I missed last weeks IP, but having read Rhiannon's it inspired me to jot a few lines relating to Winnie the Pooh, along with Mullah Nasruddin one of the great wise fools.

A nice one Rhiannon; and it reminded me of our attempts to grow carrots (why?) it must have been the stony ground because they always came out mishapen! Like spuds - just buy at the shop!

What a briliant take on old

Posted on Tue, 21 May 2024

What a briliant take on old nursey rhymes; and there us no end to books - especially the badly written ones. My pet hate is when 'celebrities' get paid huge advances to 'write' (ghostly) some piece of crud, while the talented can't find a...

Well, Jenny, you've done it, and my compliments. My problem is that I can't abide anything of the Pre-Raphaelite, all those insipid women ugh! A personal taste I know, but your take (and Luigi's) is the best with such a challenging topic.

The world turning, and orbiting the sun, while the galaxy hurtles along - and meanwhile how far is an hour in a car? Great idea Rhiannon.

'following flights with earthbound jealousy.'  A perfect simile for our love of birdlife, which has that element of yearning.
