Son of My Father

What's this one about? Fathers and sons, old age, what awaits us all... and loads of other things, you decide. Image in PD, source Look and Learn.com, Odysseus and the sirens.

Poetry Commotion

And this is the oldest thing I could find today. It used to be on an earlier incarnation of UKA, in 2010. image made at canva.com

The Bells and The Muezzin would be interruptions in the relative silence of the pre-industrial era, striking the hour, calling to prayer or as warning if it were the case of a tocsin bell. Interesting, though, about the changing soundscape. I...

I did enjoy the the silence, once it started being filled by wildlife. At the depth of the lock-down a deer was running down Jepson Road - usually a very busy thoroughfare. I hate the noise those buses make really, but when I was young, you might...
