Funnily enough my partner's going night fishing with his son this weekend, so I expect he will be sitting thinking of me and I of him. Nice thoughtful poem.

Oh Penny, I so enjoyed reading this piece. Your shared thoughts reminded me of my own dad and how I felt when he sadly died and having to sort out the many records in his collection. Did your dad play the piano? If he did then again you would...

Posted on Thu, 12 Apr 2018
I had this vision in my mind's eye of a woman sitting on a cliff top looking out to sea and reminiscing of lost love. I know I'm probably miles away from what your poem was saying, but I found it so haunting and sad, yet so poetic and written...

I'm very much enjoying reading these chapters Richard. Gives great insight into another time, another place in history which always fascinates me.
I'm looking forward to finding out if there maybe love in Matties eyes.
Jenny.
