Poking James MacGuigan’s Cow

This is an old bit of writing from the days when I was still nervous about farm animals. I’ve done a bit of the digital remastering because I was never really happy with it and I thought that while I was fiddling about I would change the subject from a pig to a cow, thus meeting the dictates of this week’s Inspiration Point. So you’d better read it because if you don’t I’ll set James MacGuigan on you.

Trip of a Lifetime

A poem inspired by a terrible incident my partner and I witnessed on the four kilometre journey into our local town this morning.

Scorn Not His Djezve

A tongue in cheek assessment of the misnomer that making good coffee is complicated.

Song to My Siren

I loved the way we shared that laughter. No other made me laugh like you.

Energetic

Posted on Thu, 01 May 2025

Isn't energetic just the perfect word for describing the spring?

A great poem Jenny. Congratulations on all the accolades.

Old Quarry

Posted on Fri, 25 Apr 2025

We never know what characters hide behind those scary faces. Better safe than sorry, every time for children and adults.

When I was nine and living in York, a lorry driver stopped and offered me a lift. I often think back and wonder what...

Scary stuff

Posted on Fri, 25 Apr 2025

Such a shame that a lovely adventure should go so horribly wrong. You did right to run away as it could have gone even more horribly wrong. A story of two extremes, and quite disturbing as we never know what is out there. We live in a scary world...

Petty cash

Posted on Thu, 17 Apr 2025

The money I gave to Kavinda was approximately one tenth of my weekly wage at the time, so not much at all to me but a fortune to him.

I've written part three but it's too big to fit within the parameters of an ABC post so I've split it and...

Ships

Posted on Wed, 16 Apr 2025

Thank you very much Jenny.

I think hardship enriches our lives more than riches do, though probably not for Sri Lankans as so many of them have known only hardship.

I worked for the shipping company just short of three years which...

I wish I knew what happens next.

It's nice to see you starting a new story and to be in on it from the beginning. Good luck with it.

Even older than me

Posted on Sat, 12 Apr 2025

It absolutely amazes me how a living organism can survive so long. Imagine the things it has lived through. I wouldn't want to be an oak tree myself though. 

Lovely poem Jenny.

Yeats and Villa

Posted on Wed, 09 Apr 2025

Thanks for that Paul. I pick up the Yeats book from time to time but I'd be fibbing if I said I'd read it from cover to cover. Days with absolutely nothing at all to do are perfect for such literary adventures.

On a totally different...

A gripping beginning

A gripping end to the first instalment. I feel this is going to be an altogether gripping tale.
