Heart and Wardrobe

Hello PL’s, Now, I’ve had two challenges for my heart and wardrobe themes, and they’re both such good poems…….

It’s so beautiful – do read on… My Heart would be a Butterfly MyContinue reading “Heart and Wardrobe”

Heart II

Hello Poetry Lovers, Welcome to part II of what our hearts could become. Not only is Trisha Broomfield talented and prolific, she is also a genius! Because Trisha has come up trumps with her version of what her heart could become. Chocolate is involved, which is almost as hazardous as being a fish really –Continue reading “Heart II”

My Heart…..

Hello Poetry Lovers, I’ve abandoned preparing the poem I was going to show you originally. Shame, because I’d illustrated it too! As we all know, sometimes these things just don’t work. So, as a substitute, I’ve put a set exercise on here. I didn’t expect to get into it as much as I did. IContinue reading “My Heart…..”

Disco III

Hello Poetry Lovers, I’ve jumped right in the deep end and posted a third instalment about the golden age of Disco. This comes from wonderful poet Trisha Broomfield’s perspective, and a sharp and astute one it is too. One is reminded of different aspects of disco and how much violence and rivalry was a commonContinue reading “Disco III”

Disco II

Hello PL’s, I’ve decided to stick to the Disco theme – or rather the misery of Disco. They weren’t great for everybody. Especially when you went with older cousins, who were stuck with you for the week! Ooh, they were long holidays staying with her. My Cousin made me as welcome as a fart inContinue reading “Disco II”

Fashion Crisis ‘71

Hello Poetry Lovers, now I’ve been tidying out the Poetry Sideboard to find a theme for today’s post. And I came up with yet another poignant memory from 1971. As you can see, there is a wealth of material lurking in here, so I’ve penned this one set in ‘71 and the importance of theContinue reading “Fashion Crisis ‘71”
