You have so cleverly created
Posted on Thu, 23 Jul 2020
You have so cleverly created an atmosphere where their nerves are jangling, and everyone they come across might be an enemy. And then it's a relief when someone is kind to them, but the reader is still on edge because it might not last. The...

You have such a wonderful eye

You have such a wonderful eye for the physical qualities of nature, but also that ability to use those things as a springboard for so many thoughtful meditations. Beautiful and accessible poetry. Such a pleasure to read.

Completely echo Drew's comment. I love hearing writers read their work, it always brings an extra dimension to it. And no ashtrays heard here, either!
