Hi Jenny,
Skilful use of language in this poem: flowed like water, a never ending stream.

Hi Jenny,
It was especially difficult for the elderly in the lockdown and a tragedy for them if they lost a partner. This poem is thoughtful and empathetic in their struggle to survive. Music certainly helps: it is a great comforter !...

hi Rhiannon,
This did indeed have a musical flow to the correlating change of the seasons, a never ending cycle. Very nicely done !!!

hi Rhiannon,
I don't think many conkers become trees. I remember hoardes of boys throwing up sticks to try and make them fall much to the consternation of neighbours. Nice poem : rich !
