Parcel for You...Part 37

Posted on Mon, 09 May 2022
Loved a den as a child and would have one now if I had a larger patch of garden. There are few things more restorative than immersing yourself in the wild among branches entwining, listening to the distant buzzing. I really love the way you've...

Posted on Thu, 21 Apr 2022
'gingered bracken' - I love this description and the photographs are beautiful. The way you've included a glider, it adds another dimension and forces you to imagine the view from above as well as at ground level. The whole thing is very...

Lovely, watery poem, I enjoyed the free flowing arrangement of the river's description. It's so alive and very much an apt theme, given all the bursting banks and frozen, flooded fields I observe on my drive to work.
