The view you've created with
Posted on Wed, 16 Feb 2022
The view you've created with words is spectacular. I just love castles and the one in your photo shows so much of the antiquity of the past, a period of impressions I find so appealing, with a backdrop of a distant neighbouring town and far...

Wandering through your poem,
Posted on Sun, 06 Feb 2022
Wandering through your poem, you touched my senses, I felt like I was experiencing an adventure, especially in those lines:-
then luminous silence tips, full
of stipply falling feathered ice
as swiftly stops, and in the lull...

What an amazing journey
Posted on Wed, 02 Feb 2022
What an amazing journey Turlough. I can never get over how much adventure you've experienced in your life. To have shown those children so much kindness, gives me faith that there are good people in the world.

Hi Penny,

I like the fact that although Dillon could be the suspect, you are still keeping the suspense going as this mystery progresses. As always Willow comes across as a very wise cat.
Still very much enjoying.
Jenny.

This was so creepy, I thank
Posted on Sun, 02 Jan 2022
This was so creepy, I thank goodness that I don't ever get involved with anything but ABC Tales. I have been stupid in the past and been hit with some scams, but you live and learn. This story was something else, a lot more scary.
Hope you...

The drink may not have been
Posted on Sun, 02 Jan 2022
The drink may not have been your best friend, but you certainly made some memories Turlough.
My partner nearly died when he was born, but his nan gave him a tiny bit of brandy on her finger, and it revived him, so not all bad.

I had a right good laugh
Posted on Thu, 30 Dec 2021
I had a right good laugh reading this...of course as always.

Of course the misletoe has
Posted on Thu, 30 Dec 2021
Of course the misletoe has sadly got a bad reputation, but your poetic words emanate their beauty too. I like the idea that if there ever was a secret of the berries, it's the mistle thrush who only knows, adds a touch of mystery that we as...

A poem that becomes all too
Posted on Wed, 29 Dec 2021
A poem that becomes all too familiar as I get older.
Significant lines for me:-
Yew trees (Stoical) standing in silence,
winter robins singing - lift solemn spirits.
Flowers lying in grave beds decaying,
