I hadn't heard they might be useful nectar sources of bees. I have written a couple of shorties about them in the past, on the cheeriness when they open after drizzle has stopped and along the roadside as 'dandy lions'! Rhiannon

Posted on Mon, 04 Feb 2019
Written so realistically. So sad, because so easily can grip and grow. I remember my father talking me through a 'prayer ritual' I'd got into, and showing the two extremes neither of which were true prayer. So, I can see how this could happen....

How much metaphor you've got
Posted on Sun, 03 Feb 2019
How much metaphor you've got going there for the life history of those eggs! I've assumed RV stands for Recreational Vehicle ie Camper Van as the home of the developing embryos? as they develop in a largo state before their allegro and tempo...

You write in a dreamy and lyrical way, and the idea of wandering among the galaxies or shooting directly through like a neutrino is pleasant!
The very concept of time breaks down for me as unimaginable distances and chronological time...

Posted on Mon, 07 Jan 2019
I'm not sure whether there is smoke associated with oil production, though I suppose some when used as a fuel. What I remember more is the smoke when the wells were set alight deliberately in the Kuwait war, and I think by Isis more recently....

You bring the history to life
Posted on Mon, 07 Jan 2019
You bring the history to life and show the wonder and relevance to our ordinary everyday struggles! I like the term 'The Ambassador's Boss'! and “I know the plans I have for You, they are Plans for Good and not for Disaster to give you a Hope...
