Hello Poetry Lovers Staying on the subject of animals, we turn to my favourite species. Cats natch. While I’m not sure I want to actually be one, I do envy them a lot. Particularly my own cat, Dobby. They get away with so much, and take it for granted. I’ve tried to express my thoughtsContinue reading “Oh Cat!”

The Zebra
Hello Poetry Lovers So talented poet Trisha Broomfield said she would like to be a zebra – out of any animal. I do see her point, with those snazzy stripes. Not quite as big or cumbersome as horses, they can run with grace and zeal. And get up to all sorts! Like this particular ‘Trisha’Continue reading “The Zebra”
Bristol Capers
Hello Poetry Lovers. Yes, we conquered Bristol (I think). I know it was non-stop! This is me embracing Clifton! And as for poetry, well I just looked in the Yellow Pages (let your fingers do the walking – loved that advert), or rather I scrolled on my phone and was delighted to find a poetryContinue reading “Bristol Capers”
And We’re Off…

More Ogden….
Hello Poetry Lovers This time we turn to other creatures that clever Ogden Nash has featured, such as the Eel. We never really hear their side of the story. And this one is quite handsome. A ‘good catch’ you might say. A lady I knew bought an eel for her marine fish tank. I adoredContinue reading “More Ogden….”

My Poetry Week….
Well, Poetry Lovers, what a week of poetry it has been! Last Sunday we had the joy of Sir Richard Eyre as featured poet at the Adelaide. Honoured by his visit, we loved his poems and anecdotes.
