Posted on Fri, 26 Apr 2024

I really like the role Spencer is taking on "That's a very nice cup of tea, Spencer". I wonder how Vanessa is shaping his personality by how she is, how she treats him? What might another robot be like in another couple? Everything about your...

Posted on Tue, 30 Apr 2024

Glad you chose to honour them with one of your wonderful poems! I have always thought they are magical, fairytale flowers, they have such complex shapes, don't they? Wonder how grannies must have looked very flamboyant if their bonnets really...

So sorry you cannot replace

Posted on Sun, 28 Apr 2024

So sorry you cannot replace your trees! That's a real shame when you are one of those too rare people who truly appreciate them, which is why I love reading your tree poems. You seem to go deep into Nature, into a vein that is beyond science,...

She does? Wow, that's interesting! Kudos :0) I nearly tried, but then reckoned the vegan milk is so expensive anyway, probably not worth risking wasting it all if it didn't work. I get the yoghurt when it's reduced as a treat. Does Priyatelkata...

Posted on Tue, 23 Apr 2024

Listening to the news, we really are so lucky, as you say! I like very much how you make food sound like a force, like water or electricity, that can be blocked - your rhyme and rhythm helps with that feeling of movement

"In our superstores the yoghurt aisles

Are measured not in feet but miles"

Posted on Tue, 23 Apr 2024

"the greatest lie might be the starkest truth" made me think of the eclipse, when the sun becomes black. Nothing lasts forever, even nothing. I really like "no fire burns like doubt" Doubt is the dark side of hope I guess.
