Posted on Sat, 20 Jan 2024
There is lots of magic in these lines, it's sort of sad too. I can't bear a dead bird. Those pies are a community, a dynasty. I see them in a different light now with fairies in their hearts. How beautiful.

Very sweet and delightful for children. My car has a name and a character, they all do. I remember my children commenting on whether cars had angry or friendly faces....

A sad but ultimately satisfying second part, Paul. So nicely done. I can imagine the silence in their house and the welcome presence of the cat wandering in. I suppose you have to make allowances for people's coping strategies in such sorrowful...

I really like this, Rhiannon. It's easy to forget that farmers are up and out in all weathers, at all times helping nature along. Your words are soft and powerful here, much like the lamplight.
