I love the element of

Posted on Thu, 02 Jun 2022

I love the element of folklore in this; nature intertwined with adventure, constant peril, all driven by the froces which spring from childhood experiences.  The name Elowen is so beautiful.

I think that story about marriage was in the Daily Mail. All I can say is that I've been with my partner for over thrity years, we have two children, we're not married and our children have had a very stable family life, no splits or affairs,...

You've made so many valid

Posted on Tue, 31 May 2022

You've made so many valid points here Di. Some are pushing nuclear energy as if it's a risk-free, magic bullet to the energy crisis.

I like this poem, it speaks

I like this poem, it speaks of the coiled spring like energy that lives inside all horses, along with the need to be both loved and led. I particularly love the last line.

That is really lovely lenchen

This really got into my head

Posted on Tue, 17 May 2022

This really got into my head Rhiannon. As I read, I could really imagine lying there, confined but still living through all the sounds from the open window. Reminded me of being a small child and sent to bed in summer when I wasn't at all sleepy...

A clever and interesting poem

Posted on Fri, 06 May 2022

A clever and interesting poem Di. There's so many directions you can go in with a chrysalis, it's such a shocking peice of engineering and a shocking process for the creature involved but somehow it survives all that change. I enjoyed the uplift...
