Spencer's lack of emotion

Posted on Sun, 08 Dec 2024

Spencer's lack of emotion makes him sound so condescending when dealing with Vanessa, especially when he acts all calm and she feels that human condition of frustration.

Story's coming along great Jane I'm loving it.

You evoke so much history in this poem Turlough, especially in that second stanza. I really liked the lines:-

Nazi guns NATO Jets

Hi Turlough,

Posted on Sat, 07 Dec 2024

Hi Turlough,

Posted on Wed, 04 Dec 2024

This is such a wonderful creation of a festive poem, that really put me in the mood for the season. Reminds me of a lost Victorian England with all the true meaning behind it, rather than the commerical money making.

Very much enjoyed and...

Hi Turlough,

Posted on Tue, 03 Dec 2024

Hi Turlough,

I agree the world does need more Johns. I wrote about him from my own experience of being asked if we wanted to sell our 1900s property, which they wanted to knock down for the development of a road leading to our back garden...

You bring Kathleen to life

Posted on Mon, 02 Dec 2024

You bring Kathleen to life with your accomplished description of her and skilful rhythm and rhyme. I did feel sorry for her with receding hair, that's the one thing I dread as I get older...including going bald. ...

Posted on Sun, 01 Dec 2024

It sounds like nature is getting its own back Jane. I loved reading this story. I've started writing a piece on saving the countryside from development myself, I hope you don't mind.

Thanks for bringing this important subject up in a story...
