Posted on Sun, 07 Jan 2018
It may indeed be very relevant. As the poet says, 'What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare'. Standing and staring is in danger of becoming a lost art. I hope your fictional society has better luck preserving it...

I absolutely loved this.
Posted on Fri, 05 Jan 2018
I absolutely loved this. Read it through, then went back and read it again after the 'reveal' and didn't stop chuckling all the way through. I have a Sibyl, and I can just imagine her being this mean to a poor Sam. I also have a much milder...

I love the structure of this
Posted on Sat, 06 Jan 2018
I love the structure of this and, as Rhiannon said, the picture of contentment through hard work. So interesting too, to hear the story behind it. Very enjoyable read.

I didn't see that last line
Posted on Sat, 23 Dec 2017
I didn't see that last line coming. The scene is very well built up, inviting the reader to invest in these characters, and feel a genuine sadness for the woman watching and waiting.

Posted on Sat, 23 Dec 2017
Some of the imagery in this is very effective, and the poem as a whole seems to come alive, in fact, when the river arrives 'buzzing, puffing, scuffing'. The dry humour (oh, that's a daft thing to say in this context, but I can't think of a...

You capture the wonderful strangeness of a peacock very well. Their beauty has an almost alien quality to it, if you are standing looking at them, and they are standing looking back. This brought back memories of being with my children when...

The thing I love about this,
Posted on Fri, 24 Nov 2017
The thing I love about this, and liked so much about the previous part, is the way you show people apparently quietly getting on with life, making the best, as they say, but underneath there is so much emotion and so much tremulous hope. Less is...

Very moving.

Beautifully written. Makes you feel so much for the child then and the child who still remains.

Beautifully written, and hard to read. Many readers will share the child's experiences, but there will also be parents who are painfully aware that their cihldren must have heard things they should not. An excellent piece, Poppy.

Great to see this developing.

Great to see this developing. There is a lot of exposition in this part, and for me following drafts could do with breaking it up a bit. But that's for later. Keep going!
