I think the lock down has given many a new perspective on life. It's like we've entered a new era of living. It's good that you've kept a record of lockdown, it makes for a part of our history that one day others will beable to read about....
I have to say that I echo everything Paul has said, and couldn't have put it better myself. There was so much detail in the Dream Of Gerontius, I can understand why it was so popular. Also to have created so many poems while on his Mediterranean...
It seems like that last line has given you food for thought. I was just wondering why Zeus wants to see Ares? Hope there's more to come, or even the beginning of a new story.
Gosh Rhiannon, this sounds like some trek and quite a challenge with being so slippery in places. I hope you are okay after the fall, it can be very painful.

this is a fine tribute to the Wishing tree, you have so many beautiful descriptions that I connected with when I went there. We have a similar tree at Avebury, it's up on one of the ridges, and Druids also hang offerings of...

Sorry I'm a bit late to your story, I wanted to read this part through fresh eyes. You've always bought the dialogue together so well throughout this story Hades.Persehphone's devotion to Hades is understandable with what he offers her, but at...
I was so fascinated by Cardinal Father John studying the violin at ten years of age, and to think that he might have been another Paganini had he not been a Doctor of the Church, he must have been so talanted. Also I would agree with him about...

Hi there Hades.

It seems like that last line has given you food for thought. I was just wondering why Zeus wants to see Ares? Hope there's more to come, or even the beginning of a new story.
Wishing you good luck with the future.

I've never heard of this little bird before. Your poem makes me want to go and read up on the Verdin.
Thank you for sharing Rachel.
