I am a Fruit Cake

I am a fruit cake. I have good ideas but I never act on them. They dry out and are preserved in a sweet syrup of optimism. There are always more,...

No one comes here.

No one comes here. A sun rises each day between the faded drapes. And dust sparkles in the air, There’s no gravity, in this choked cell, it is silent...

After the Blizzard

Frozen in the ground, I found the bones of a forgotten road. Where it was so hard to dig, under scentless layers of pristine snow. An unspoilt drift...

I Name that Shoe....

I don't know how I missed

Posted on Sat, 07 Mar 2020

I don't know how I missed this, what a treasure. Brain scans have shown that looking into a forest  in full leaf is restorative, rather like sleep.  Access to safe, green spaces for all - and if that isn't possible then poems like this help a lot...

I really enjoyed this, it

Posted on Tue, 10 Mar 2020

I really enjoyed this, it brought back so many memories of feeling absolutely free on summer evenings with no worries and so many opportunities stretching out, and of course trees are the backdrop of life.

Posted on Sat, 07 Mar 2020

I like this a lot, it's unique and reminds me a bit of Hans Christian Anderson and the way he sometimes wrote from the perspective of an object. I also like the way you have avoided the cliche of exhibiting pride around damage.

Posted on Tue, 04 Feb 2020

This is very fine, especially the first verse, it made my mouth water. Even pavement cracks hold possibilities, I love. It's a shame people don't spend much time outside when it's cold in February because there is so much happening.

Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares

Posted on Tue, 11 Feb 2020

Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares is an example of everything which is wrong with the human race. I enjoyed this piece about the little conflicts that occur inside our heads and reasons behind them.  I can lose myself in the mug section in Homesense...

A fine tribute to these

Posted on Sun, 02 Feb 2020

A fine tribute to these incredible animals, to think they were once a staple part of our diet. I enjoyed the slippery, fluid movement throughout.  A shimmering length of muscle, who needs legs?

Posted on Sat, 14 Dec 2019

Hi Rhiannon. Thanks for your comment. I agree with you, some people cannot accept help or are so far gone that they don't know how to ask for it and yet those connected with them would have done anything to help.

Posted on Sun, 15 Dec 2019

This captures well the inner battle of sleeplessness. The ticking mind and aching body and then the inexplicable release into sleep. The tired bee analogy is perfect.
