Great title and some mind blowing descriptions of his surroundings and the...

This is such a brilliant poem
Posted on Tue, 21 May 2024
This is such a brilliant poem Rhiannon, it reminds me of the many disappointments I've had at growing carrots. They can appear to look so healthy and enticing to pull up, but what comes out is just a stubby short carrot, not at all like the...

Great story for the I P Jane.
Posted on Mon, 20 May 2024
Great story for the I P Jane. I love Blodwyn's poem, it evoked folklore and timely care the skilled gardener puts forward to growing a submission in a competition.
Very well thought out and a pleasure to read.
Jenny.

Posted on Fri, 17 May 2024

I wonder how Vanessa will
Posted on Fri, 17 May 2024
I wonder how Vanessa will react to that last comment about Spencer being a slave.
It's funny how our taste buds change as we get older. I used to grow chillies and put them with so many different foods, but now can't stand anything that's...

Hi Turlough,

Hi Turlough,
you know I never thought about Chere's record when I wrote those words. Although I get your point, there's no way I would take to a ship's deck with all those American sailors oggling me. She was lucky enough to have the looks...

Hi Rhiannon,

Hi Rhiannon,
I didn't know this AA Milne piece, but your poem reminds me of that song by Kermit the frog, when he sings about being half way up the stair.
I have to admit that on those odd occasions when I venture out for a walk, It...
