I also thought you seemed to have known this man so well, though maybe it was a combination of people known over the years. But was again interested in the sweep of life depicted (by our age, you do get aware of the sweep of the years, the...

Posted on Fri, 20 Jan 2017

Yes! I was struck when the phrase 'his word is his bond' came to mind – in these days a phrase almost forgotten, and so well illustrates the dependability and power of God's words and promises, unlike so much that gets said without committment or...

I thought I'd made a comment on this on Saturday. Probably forgot to press 'Save'!

Posted on Mon, 05 Dec 2016

I enjoyed your singing word-play 'nonsense' Elsie. Keyboards can be enslaving and mind-and-limb numbing. Though I felt the burst of freedom and lively activity could get rather self-centred and hedonistic?! Rhiannon

Posted on Mon, 28 Nov 2016

 I think of rhymes as part of what makes verse 'sing' or something like music, and, as I think your intimating, does help to clip it into  memory, not heavy and forced, but slipped in unobtrusively, to make it scarper, or dance as you say! ...
