Thank you for your comment Michelle. Writing seams to be the best outlet for me. Unfortunately my muse always comes from heartbreak or disappointment. I really enjoyed your poem 'Holding Hands' ...I can relate to that also.

Thanks for the kind comments on 'Something To Say' Steve - much appreciated - I was hoping to come and see you and Laura in Wigan on 16th May - and can't now because I've got a gig in Wakefield. May try to catch you in Chester on the 17th if I'm back in time.

" All this new, democratic, internet stuff is like launching little candle boats of poetic endeavour out on to the Ganges of universal criticism – I love it. "

Wow! Sums it up perfectly for me. I love it too :)

"The Manner of Her Going" - 44 words (if I counted correctly) creating a million explosions in my tiny head. That's what I call poetry.

Love the style of the samples on your profile - any chance of posting more? I appreciate your 'observant' attention to detail and careful choice of vocabulary. There is a certain economy of words that indicates a deliberation of thought and a striving for the end product to be as good as it can be. Thank you for sharing.

Hello Cynthia

Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on both 'Take Away Love' and 'A&E'. Your opinion and comments are very much appreciated. I was a tad concerned about putting 'Take Away Love' out there and even sat my sons down to warn and explain what the content was really about. In response they just rolled their eyes!

Hi Cynthia The parallel between the Red Arrows and the geese was quite fortuitous. As I was thinking of John (my father in law) the geese flew past and it so happened that one of the many things he banged on about was what a waste of money those displays were. It's no more profound or complicated than that. There's also supposed to be a bit of gentle humour because he was a larger than life character who could often drive you mad when you were busy. Still, maybe my kids see me like that too!

Cynthia - many thanks for your kind words on 'Caught Out'.
I had never written a haiku before this and 'Crow' and had steered clear as I never truly understood them until I got the chance to research the history recently. I'm glad you enjoyed my efforts and took the time to read it more than once (which I now believe is the secret to this style).

HI Jackie, Thanks for your kind comment on the ramblings, good to know others can relate - the injustice of being punished when you don't know what for, unforgettable ;). I'm sure I've probably given my own kids some similar memories...

Hello Andy, It was great to meet you too and thanks for taking the time to read, your advice and listening round the back!! I really enjoyed listening to everyone on the night - you all read so well. I will check out Jeff's night. Is it on the same day as the Wigan event in the afternoon?
You obviously have been writing for a while so I will grab a cup of tea one Sunday afternoon and have a proper read.

Thanks for the comment on 'Crow' John. I love the personification and animality crossovers. I didn't know the charm of finches, but there are some great ones around. I may pinch this one in the future!
