'Until you no longer remember
Posted on Sat, 08 Jan 2022
'Until you no longer remember me in your prayers', A long extinguished flame can suddenly re-ignite without warning but an unkissed state is one of both sadness and peace. I love the flow and movement. When something is so far out of reach you...

That is a lovely story. I bet he's sharp, his face is beautiful, he looks slightly whippety in the face. One of my whippets is almost 14 years, we've had him since he was 7 weeks old. I loved all the details around the beginnings of Skye's life...

Reading this poem left me
Posted on Wed, 05 Jan 2022
Reading this poem left me feeling relaxed. I haven't been to Glastonbury Tor but now I will be making a trip down there. There's so much on offer in the UK to connect us with our ancient ancestors. I like to go to Stonehenge when my birthday...

Posted on Mon, 13 Dec 2021

Posted on Sat, 04 Dec 2021
'Twisty seclusion' I really enjoyed your poem and the accompanying photograph. It looks like a lovely spot for tapping into 'unrestrained pulsing earth's wonder'. I wish I had a bit more space for rewilding, it makes such a difference and it...

Ah, that's my daughter's middle name and one of my favourite trees. I think you've paid a fine tribute to this beautiful tree, covering all of it's characteristics. I love to watch the blackbirds downing the berries in one. 'Solitary wanderers',...

Posted on Sun, 28 Nov 2021
Thank you Di, I was worried it might be a bit trippy but I think we all need a trip as November comes to a close. Birds definitely form friendships and there are so many cross species friendships in the animal world. I say this looking at my...
