You Looked Like You Had Lost
At low tide, the stillest sleep, and the vastness of this beach exposed. Memories littered, stories, half buried. I think that’s when I saw your eyes...

Legend of the Pah - 6 (S T Vasectomy Clinic)
Right now it didn’t matter that he was growing older. The very act of starting up his old motor and taking it out felt rebellious and liberating, he...

The early hours of the morning were a magic time, he felt, when most people exist in another realm, sleeping and oblivious. The world was an empty...

Legend of the Pah - 5 (S T Vasectomy Clinic)
‘A parcel came for you,’ Lynne said dryly without looking up from her laptop. ‘Ah good, yes the new car battery for my old Audi.’ She glared at him...

Pet Sounds
Do you ever hear somebody call your name in your sleep? ‘Catherine,’ I heard it loud and clear and it played back in my head as I awoke, in fact I...

Posted on Thu, 14 Apr 2022
You've summed up just how much everything has changed over the past week Jenny. The air feels different and spring seems to have burst out of its seems all of a sudden. I love 'not being a pigeon expert', made me smile. The birds bring so much a...

Posted on Sat, 09 Apr 2022
She still gets excited about smelling them - that's so sweet. It's hard to control your emotions, knowing what's ahead but by feeling sad about it you're depriving yourself some of the joy of still having them next to you. I know it's hard to be...

Fulfilling to read, such a treat Di. I love 'bird song chips clear air', because they do, also love 'smelting life from light'. You've crammed so much quality in that I think I'll need to go back and re-read.

Posted on Wed, 06 Apr 2022
I like the way you've woven your adventures in the sensory experience; aromas, sounds, 'resembling a clutch of herbs'. Our brains seem to hang onto the sensory memories with astonishing accuracy, a song or the scent of a perfume acting as a time...

I really enjoyed this poem, all the answers there in the woods. I think we have the same notion of a god. Beautifully done.

Posted on Thu, 31 Mar 2022
I enjoyed this poetic take on a creepy tale, especially how you set the scene in the woods and then take the reader through the story until its brutal ending and the childrens escape. I love the Pied Piper verses but it's rather long. This is...

Anemone, what a beautiful name for a fairy. I can just picture the twins, Alvar and Almalric playfighting and flying around the forest. I must say, I really envy their lifesyle, especially at the moment.

Posted on Sun, 27 Mar 2022
I love this. The picture you've painted is beautiful and pure escapism. Yes I do believe. I was once lucky enough to see a tiny tiny man, not a fairy, well not winged anyway. I was a small child but I know what I saw. I've written about it on...

Posted on Tue, 15 Mar 2022
Beautiful lines for the season Rhiannon. I haven't seen any celandines yet but lots of aconites out here with their little collars and of course all the primroses and daffodils blowing their trumpets, 'heralding the coming spring'. Perfect.

Love this, so unique. In the end there is always a new way to create but I can't help thinking of that ear, all half-pecked and covered in dirt.
