Hi Paul, we live in such scary times, it's enough to give a person nightmares. I don't follow any of the social media websites. Would much rather play some peaceful classical music late at night, I suppose I live in my own little world...not...

Posted on Wed, 14 Aug 2024

A perfect example of how we use a garden, for all ages Rhiannon. 

Love the lines:-

a place for imagination 

to take wing.

That's how I feel.

Also those last four lines sum up your poem for me.

I agree with Di, you've taken the storyline and set the scene for gripping intrigue as to where the characters will go next.

I was so moved by this beautiful poem, each word is richly woven into nature's folklore, reminding me of times gone by and Victorian ladies in cottage gardens, where perfume fills the air, along with her wild flowers, and the lady is at one with...

Hi Yutka,

Posted on Wed, 07 Aug 2024

Hi Yutka,

this was such a skilful, mesmerizing poem, that captures so many imaginative metaphores,

I like the rhythm and rhyme
