Prism Break

I was inspired by the Inspiration Point and wanted to include a piece that came to me in the middle of the night about all the rainbow colours.

Blue Yonder

Written in darkness, my mind wandered back to a fabulous view from the Llangollen Canal over a nearby Mere at Ellsmere last summer.

Eyes

Posted on Mon, 18 Feb 2019

I so totally agree with your poem.  When I read a poem and wish 'I'd written it' then it comes from gratitude for putting into words what I have felt. 

Eyes say so much and it is true that they too can lie, but often they reveal a deeper...

Not just the poem, but the photo transported me.  You paint pictures with words and I am grateful for this beautiful piece. I rarely write about the countryside, but poems like thiis are not only beatifully crafted but an inspiration.

Classroom Assistants are vastly underated and underpaid.  Their value to any truly colaboratively minded teacher is invaluable.

I always listen to their advice and observations; they have a much clearer picture of the individual student...

You've done it again

Posted on Mon, 14 Jan 2019

i loved this poem.  I spent years splashing cash thinking it would impress.  Then my daughter came along with gifts that meant so much and I was transformed.  A message of love in each gift.  Caring...a huge plus in the world  of giving.

It is more than...

Posted on Fri, 24 Aug 2018

I love poems that evoke imanges and this one (for me) is full of them.  I was also taken to 'Nowhere Man' by the Beatles and 'Crossroads' by Don McLean. I guess its the roads connection, but for me poems that take my mind on a journey are worth...

Rhythm

Posted on Tue, 14 Aug 2018

Your work never dissapoints and I simply adored the rhythm of this poem.  For some reason I was transported back to a famous piece of work 'the night mail' and the rhythm in that. A really inspiring piece of work Rhiannon.  Well done...again!

I loved the line '...Ivy chains'  Why did it take so long for me to discover your writing?  Keep it turning.  That wheel of talent.

Truly uplifting and the ultimate test....................rereadable again and again.
