'schooled me in draughts

Posted on Thu, 05 Feb 2015

'schooled me in draughts
and dominoes and dancing
on your brogues...'  That's my favorite. And I found the ending very moving - that need to remember - the sudden importance in getting it right. And you always do, Tina.

That second verse is lush!

Posted on Wed, 04 Feb 2015

That second verse is lush! Gorgeous, sexy poem, cleverly built crescendo, fading in tranquil diminuendo. Get the feeling you might have been listening to music whilst writing. I thought this was brilliant, Tina.

Hi Tina, I loved the elusive

Posted on Sat, 31 Jan 2015

Hi Tina, I loved the elusive and ethereal feel to the poem - felt the freshness all cut through with the solid reality of power lines and warm clothes - the ending bringing us back to reality. It all came together as such a vivid picture -...

Beautifully expressed,

Posted on Fri, 30 Jan 2015

Beautifully expressed, Shannan. Singing is great - writing can fill in the gaps spmetimes too. I've just been on your home page and started listening to you read your work. I love hearing people read their own stuff, and your reading is lovely....

Posted on Wed, 14 Jan 2015

This is so bright and vivid, jolono, I could see it all and feel the emotions. Touched my heart, and weirdly, brought back memories, even though I wasn't there. Also loved the title and the way it rolls off the tongue.

Posted on Sat, 10 Jan 2015

'They tell her secrets they’ve never told anyone before. Then they feel guilty and relieved and a little haunted when she disappears.' - I loved that. Clever.

And - 'She refuses to sleep with me, claiming that she’s too old and besides she...

Posted on Sat, 10 Jan 2015

Reading this, I was struck by what it would have meant to write, and especially, to receive letters like these. A brilliant way to piece together a story and a natural way to supply detail. Really well done!

This is a fascinating story

Posted on Thu, 08 Jan 2015

This is a fascinating story of love and possession, and really well written. For me, there's a compulsion to see what he doesn't want to come true, and if he gets what he would, or should want, he'll lose all. I'm probably jibbering talkish, so I...

This first stanza is amazingly deep and - the 'no more than you are in the sketch you would have drawn of them.'  is so strong I can't stop thinking about it. To not be in something you never got to do is the most less there of possibility - too...
