Hi Rhiannon,

Posted on Fri, 08 Aug 2025

Hi Rhiannon,

such beautiful fields, and what a stunning view you have. It always strikes me as so sad when they decide to build on land that radiates the countryside of our past. It will result in more buildings, which will then need more...

I like your association of

Posted on Thu, 07 Aug 2025

I like your association of red not only being a fiery colour, but also carrying  the meaning of sensitivity. It's far too easy to stereotype people.

Respectful account in your poem Frances.

It must be so hard not

Posted on Thu, 07 Aug 2025

It must be so hard not knowing if you'll ever hear again properly. Your thoughts mingled with the uncertainty are a precise example of how much of an anxious time it must be. But your poitive nature comes across of the joys of your other senses,...

Hi Jane,

Posted on Thu, 07 Aug 2025

Hi Jane,

Marcus Whale sounds like a tough character that can scare you just by looking your way...a proper gang leader, who I wouldn't think they'd want to get on the wrong side of.

You've left me on a cliffhanger.

Those mountain vistas must

Posted on Tue, 05 Aug 2025

Those mountain vistas must have been incredible on your trip to the Beklemeto Pass. Also the rocky road to Devin sounded rewarding too.

That first stanza drew me in

That first stanza drew me in to this poem. Then the detailed descriptions of stanza two, had me longing to be close to the coast.

Aefelthrityh can be so

Posted on Sun, 03 Aug 2025

Aefelthrityh can be so frustrating, and seems to have a way of getting out of doing anything to do with housework,. I can't imagine Aefelthrityh would be able to manage anything without Gwladys.

I've never been to Birmingham

Posted on Fri, 01 Aug 2025

I've never been to Birmingham, so it was a real treat to read about your trip. I've been a fan of Ozzy and Black Sabbath since the 60s, and feel so sad that he's gone. I really hope his wife Sharon will be okay, it appears to have hit her so hard...
