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.

Posted on Sun, 08 Aug 2021

Dear Jenny, if I can read my poems with an Italian accent and not be embarrassed, I think that a West Country voice is perfectly acceptable. Do join the next ABC reading even if you don't read; it might give you confidence.

All the best,...

First-class poem. Jenny. It is impossible not to be inspired by that genius that was Dylan Thomas, whose essence you have captured so beautifully. Of his works, I adore Under Milk Wood, splendidly recited by Richard Burton and the villanelle Do...

You have drawn an enchanting picture of your garden full of the fragrance of honeysuckle. I am really impressed by the lyricism that you inject in your poetry, Jenny. 
You have become quite a bard.
