Thanks for getting back to me Ruth

Cheers for putting my poem on your radio show loved putting together the song titles along with the old guys going to the concert.

Queen out of town.

Thank you so much, Ruth, for guiding this complete novice through his first radio show. You have such a lovely calm easy manner and link everything together brilliantly well. Really enjoyed it, thanks to you!
Gail sends her kindest regards, too! 😀

Doing ok Ruth
love your poetry and how it reminds me of you

Faces of You
Smiling sometimes sad
words that work
make up on
I always see
faces of you.

Hi Ruth - noting your comment on John Botterill's poem, I'm
not sure poets are always the best readers of their own work and
in the past I used a Bristol studio and its two resident recording
artists to record various poems of mine in musical settings for a self-published enterprise on CD. You can find some examples (e.g. The Menin Gate and English Hills) in the audio list on my WOL page and if you'd like a sample copy of the CD, just let me know where i can send it.

Hi Ruth,

Clyde here, that wrote "the tattered old man on Christmas Eve" to see if you got my message to let you know that I would be pleased to have you use the audio for your radio show.
If you have guest on your show, I would love to be a guest.

Merry Chrismas over there in England from Portland Maine,USA

I hope you got lots of Christmas cheer
and look forward to reading lots and lots
of your poetry in the new year x

Ruth: "Ruth, Campari is but a delight ??"
Reprise nor a reprieve ???

a cat can stay at your house for years
and never say "thank you".

Don't know much about feng shui
was that the name of
your Goldfish?

Hi Ruth - Cosmos - thanks for the like - have read books about trees and they are truly amazing. Cheers. P ?

Ruth - The Blarney Stone - now I know how Bats feel, hanging on to cave walls. How do they do it without a pilot's licence nearly bumping into everything. ? Blessings. P

Thank you Ruth (Cat's eyes) glad it raised a smile. P

Hi Ruth, thank you so much for commenting on 'Strangeness and Experience'. I love that you picked up on the 'walking antennas' line in particular. What were you thinking at Yoga? Just mulling the sensitivity of some people? Either way, thank you and keep writing ? P.S. I've just given you a follow on Twitter.

Thanks Ruth

I liked all the special effects on the Ghost of me - - -
it made us all look good!

Ruth, thank you for the lovely Christmas message. I'm not out much into Manchester, but I do think that I may one day really 'see' you. Assuming you're still in this area, of course.

Your natural warmth of personality is a WOL bonus to us all. Happy New Year!

As you may pass by my little ol' page
This poetical digital stage
May our New Year bring
Your best role yet
And
Leave behind
All of
Last decade's
Regrets!

Wishing Everyone on WOL a Very Happy New Year! I've really enjoyed taking part on this site that I've just discovered this year. It was a nice alternative to the usual social media platforms!?

Ah, that's lovely. Thank you Ruth, same to you too. Thanks for all your encouragement, comments and poems this year. Hope you have a great festive season ? Tom

Yes Ruth - Techno's - and we have the nerve to call them primitive - given their limited resources they were staggering brilliant. Thanks for chiming in - or was it the abacus you were working on! ?

Thanks for commenting "sorry for apologising", I really appreciate it.

Hi Ruth and since you ask Reiki was certainly one of these and various other forms of meditation following my NDE some years ago, the latter I think might have been a spur although matters of the subconscious have often helped me formulate my poetic style both on line as well as hard copy. ?

Thanks for the comment on The Way I Write, Ruth. ? I do find it so interesting and would love others to let me in on their secret methods ? Maybe there are techniques we could all share and learn from...

Hi Ruth,
I liked the read of 'Blank Canvas' lots.
Yours has encouraged me to put my voice out there.

They say Greeting Cards are out of date
obsolete in this fast-paced world
but homemade cards are still special
when made by children
in some of their first Acts of Creation.
