Hi Rhiannon,
You capture that feeling of space and freedom with the bird getting a magnificent view. I loved the 'octopus limbs' of the branches of the monkey puzzle.

Hi Rhiannon,
It certainly can be high speed air sweeping past. I liked some of the alliteration in this. It works well !

Hi,
This is a lovely poem, Rhiannon. Redolent of a pleasant walk I should think. I have heard many good things about Ross-on-Wye and your poem reinforced these ideas !

Nicely paced poem about love

Nicely paced poem about love and life. Like Jenny says it had a very tranquillizing effect!

This says a lot in very few words. You will not be put off by 'loveless lips', but seek some reality. Sex not love has no heart !

Hi Rhiannon,
I could feel the wind's blast in this poem. I am all for renewables, especially wind. I can see the turbines from my back door. I don't think they are a blot on the landscape. Is that a typo ? - who's for whose ? second line...

I like bird poems and this

I like bird poems and this one is no exception. I like the easy sense of facility with words tumbling into one another too!
Best Wishes, HW
