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.

Writing lovely poetry has become your trademark, Jenny.

This description of the advent of a new year is perhaps wishful thinking; the desire to relive the happy memories of years past. Despite the current uncertain situation, optimism...

Hi Turlough, what a delightful anecdote. It reminded me of my time in Italy where the general belief of most married men was that meals provided by their wives were never as good as those of their mothers. 
Your poem prompted me to jot down...

Original thought as always, Jenny. I had a similar idea at first but later changed tack and produced a lighter, humorous poem.

What's this, the Labour manifest?  I can understand free speech and this is obviously a personal opinion but POD? Sorry, Rachel, I beg to differ.

Very stylish and informative as ever, Rachel, but forgive my ignorance: what is the meaning of 'hoo' in the second line?

Dear Jenny, to quote the opening lines of a song:
"I talk to the trees
But they don't listen to me"
