A poem inspired by Kipling's Harp Song of The Dane Woman. I did a reading at our poetry group with myself and a kind lady taking the voice of the wife left behind.

In Memoria Canis

A year to the day since our Springer Spaniel died; The human condition is such that I still miss him. I'd written some thoughts then, which I've revised here.

Valentine

My annual Valentine poem for my wife, which I'll put in a home made card.

Dark Night of the Soul

A Murmuration of Starlings

Why Starlings gather in their murmurations (from the sound they make) is still a mystery, and long may it be so. We are fortunate in having had some good displays this winter, in the nearby RSPB nature reserve.

I've just read this on a (for once) dry Sunday morning, and I found so much in it that I can relate to: failing the 11 plus, looking for a direction in life, finding a refuge in imagination; I just felt it spoke of how we can find renewel no...

Posted on Sun, 25 Feb 2024

Thanks Jenny. I think what put us off, is that we heard so much about the 'yoof' descending in swarms into Cornwall during summer, plus the holiday lets (which we also have in Norfolk). In contrast, for less travelling we can find ourselves 'oop...

So true Luigi; and we only have to turn on the news to see how far we've strayed.

Posted on Tue, 27 Feb 2024

True words Rhiannon; that for all their moments of rebellion they also need boundaries to feel both safe and free to grow. Funnily enough the same is for dogs.

Lovely poem Jenny, and congrats for the cherries. Oddly enough I've never been to Cornwall - Devon was my limit; probably due to distances - the same takes me north, where I love to be.
