Posted on Fri, 01 May 2020
It's just really nice to see another face coming along the road. I always try to be the one who crosses or steps out into the road but my whippets often cause me to have some delay (they always embarrass me or me them) so the other people beat me...

I love this, it's like a full literary meal of a poem. I particularly enjoyed your description of fallen cherry petals, 'wind-lipped , pale and panpipe soft, there could be no better way of describing them. Every line is reminiscent of the walks...
