Luigi Pagano
I have published four poetry collections entitled 'Idle Thoughts', 'Reflections', 'Poetry On Tap' and 'Cherry on Top'. See http://gigipagano.wixsite.com/mysite for my latest poetry collection “Cherry on Top” and other publications.
My verses can be described as eclectic, that is to say they go from the sublime to the ridiculous but, I hope, always entertaining.

As Jenny said, you are definitely on a roll. Your description of the fascination that those walks around the Pembrokeshire coast engender clearly reveals your love of nature.
Congratulations on the cherries.

A dysfunctional family and calamitous consequences. A blunt and revealing message of an awful situation.

How could I have missed this gem, Di? I am now glad that it appeared on the front page and I was able to savour its brilliance. I concur with the fulsome praise that the poem has received and congratulate you on being awarded the double honours...

Hi JoAnne.

Oh, this is really good Graham. I bet that Adam and Eve would have taken nudity in their stride but they would have been bemused by other aspects of modern behaviour and I wonder what they would have thought of the technology. It is nice to...

Best, Luigi...

"We laughed and shared conversation,
Discovering joy...both young and old
engaging with excitement joining in
the party of life."
How refreshing to read a poem full of joy and optimism as opposed to the air of gloom and...

Another impressive poem

Another impressive poem dealing with the reality of a life full of suffering and nagging doubts, when even faith oscillates between atheism and agnosticism. and hankering for a return to the innocence of the moment after birth.
