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...

I am 41 and I'm crying

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!

This is so clever, Rhiannon,

Posted on Fri, 26 Jul 2024

This is so clever, Rhiannon, the idea of a ballroom dress upon the dancefloor of their huge leaves. You've got Begonias spot on and they don't get tired either, do they.

Now I too would enjoy camping

Posted on Sun, 21 Jul 2024

Now I too would enjoy camping if all those comforts were on offer in the blink of an eye. Dolls coming to life though, that's most people's worst nightmare. There are so many unhindered imaginative elements in here.

This is wonderful. The way

Posted on Fri, 19 Jul 2024

This is wonderful. The way you've described the sights, sounds, atmosphere. I was simply teleported to the scene. Magical and one to return to.

Terrifying isn't it, Maxine.

Posted on Fri, 12 Jul 2024

Terrifying isn't it, Maxine. A national health crisis. This will be news for a week or two and then forgotten. For me it raises bigger questions about the sophistication of the crime and how a young man reaches this point. Poor father and older...

That was simply a unique read

Posted on Wed, 10 Jul 2024

That was simply a unique read, nothing predictable, more like a verbal collage using so many materials from different sources to create a thought provoking piece of art. I always found Midsummer Night's dream sort of trippy, I enjoyed how you've...
