Watching the Fire
I sat and watched the fire, I let it hold me in its stirrings, wrapping its wings around me, burning away the layers, melting the seal of everything...

Hi Rhiannon, these nature
Posted on Wed, 16 Oct 2019
Hi Rhiannon, these nature poems you write are so professional now and this is no exception. There's so much texture and the way you extend beyond the visual confines of the scene, 'enjoying the expanse as if they could fly' because that's how it...

What a descriptive snap shot
Posted on Tue, 07 May 2019
What a descriptive snap shot of the sea and its natural surroundings. I love the way you've included sound in this, the gentle booming, also the scent - of seaweed and of course the coastal flowers so beautiful at this time of year.

I have teens and you've
Posted on Sat, 01 Dec 2018
I have teens and you've articulated the current situation so well. There's a huge problem with drugs too, they're dirt cheap and used in the same way we used alcohol. The pressures, choices, the constant scrutiny, exposure to everything too...

I really enjoy these nature
Posted on Fri, 23 Nov 2018
I really enjoy these nature poems Rhiannon, partly because they focus on our native flora and fauna. In urban areas we are often surrounded by plants from all over the world which look pretty of course but lack the subtle balance of nature which...

Posted on Sun, 09 Aug 2015
I am 41 and I'm crying because I can't concentrate enough to write and this is really good and catchy and true. If only there were no more reasons to cry after seventeen!

That was a fascinating read, Maxine, all about your brother's problems and how you dealt with them with little support. I hope you found peace in the end knowing you did all you could for him.
The thing with the DVLA and the bailiffs...

It's healthy to be reminded
Posted on Fri, 10 Jan 2025
It's healthy to be reminded of this now and again, in fact I feel sort of cleansed after reading it. The current clusterflunk of the developed world feels like nothing but a blip and nature always sorts us out, one way or another. I also see it...

I don't blame him, it was disrespectful to touch his wiring. It might give him several rows of teeth and an appetite for flesh.

Very funny throughout, Turlough and so colourful with character and intriquing detail. I enjoyed every entry. I too have wondered about the Hoover thing, we live not far from the Dyson headquarters now and I'm constantly saying that they make...
