Cheers, Mark! I really hope you enjoy it! That's very kind of you.
I don't get to sit and read (or do anything!) as often as I'd like to at this moment in time, but when I do I can. Just the way it is, and it'll even out eventually.
Superb stuff, Pete. Loved it. I was wondering about the fate of Rudi Voller throughout and half expected to find him still trapped under a piece of furniture when the lads made it back downstairs. Great!
I was thinking of the Numskulls too as I read this! They were a brilliant invention. I think there might have been a Pixar movie in the last few years that bore similarities to it.
This is a great poem, Paul. Really lifting, mystical, and capturing the spirit of this time of year. A lovely escape from the troubles of current times: better days are on the way! Loved it. Well done.
I thoroughly enjoyed this! A

"where stillness of view lies undemanding" is just beautiful.

Thanks for sharing it with us.
