Posted on Tue, 23 Aug 2022

This is such a fond elegy for someone passing. I too am sorry for your loss Paul.

These lines stood out to me so much:-

I'm in absolute agreement

Posted on Thu, 07 Apr 2022

I'm in absolute agreement with you. I did buy my first phone some months ago, but only to take photos, I got so fed up of it just lying around, never being used, that in the end I gave it to my son who I knew would make more use of it than me....

The view you've created with

Posted on Wed, 16 Feb 2022

The view you've created with words is spectacular. I just love castles and the one in your photo shows so much of the antiquity of the past, a period of impressions I find so appealing, with a backdrop of a distant neighbouring town and far...

Wandering through your poem,

What an amazing journey

Posted on Wed, 02 Feb 2022
