Fun?

Why make light of evil dark? and laugh at fright … but may be really scared – … All bad taste, and plastic waste.

Personal, Church, and Society

'… What treasure ours when you we own, but in these times so few have known this sure foundation that they need' – available, his presence heed.

That third verse is

Posted on Fri, 10 Apr 2015

That third verse is especially lovely, and captures that view. All birds of prey seem so elegant, especially the kite. Is the pic a kite, I thought their tails were always more, or less, forked? I know I'm sometimes puzzled at the 'less forked'...

I thought it was a dog, but

Posted on Mon, 30 Mar 2015

I thought it was a dog, but it seemed to be a cat! Liked the digging and the perfume. But wasn't sure about the 'his' in the last line - is it the husband having nine lives or should it be 'your' referring to the cat? Maybe I'm totally wrong, if...

I can only say, how

Posted on Mon, 09 Feb 2015

I can only say, how compassionate and caring the staff are where my father-in-law is. (and it is just a basic nursing home, largely council funded, they have recently introduced a very minimal top-up and of course there is always means testing)....

I really liked the way you

Posted on Tue, 03 Feb 2015

I really liked the way you slipped in the descriptions of the garden eg ' the smell of pine as refreshing as a bucket of snow, needles crunching underfoot.' That whole paragraph seems to have so much vivid description just tucked in...

A lot of concentrated vivid
