Hi Cynthia

Thank you so much for your comments on my poems. I will admit I had a tear in my eye when I read them. It has really given me a well needed confidence boost for my writing, as I'm struggling a bit at the mo! x

Hi Mike, thanks for your comment on "Worlds". I'm glad it appealed, it more or less started with me being somewhat over analytical of my own daydreams which most oft speak of a better tomorrow or even the present of a reality not so very far from our own. I guess you appreciated the pointers to ALbert Einstein and Edgar Allan Poe in that piece.

Much appreciated anywho, and all the best with the kids,

-Josh

Hi Sarah I liked "Before the Bike" a lot, its funny as what struck me is your damning of a bike which we think of as noble compared to the car for obvious reasons, yet your right in your poem that often so much is missed as we travel at any kind of speed beyond our two legs.

Nice

Regards Richard

Dorinda I liked your two poems on signs
then I saw this and I thought of you - - -

I never wanted to believe that my Dad was stealing from his job as a road worker,
but when I got home all the signs were there!

Thanks for reading "RIB CAGE PRISON" Hope you enjoyed it and thanks for the comment. It was inspired by a comment made by a fellow poet, Ged Thompson on another poem of mine he described as a rib cage poem.
Cheers

John,
About`effs.
The `effs in your stuff always have a smile on their faces (particularly when it`s an `effin smile. And are always straight and humorously to the `effin point...keep `em comin`

Like this

Poor Larkin! - the man was out of luck
His life a sheer catastrophe
If he never even had a fuck
Till after nineteen sixty three

(I`m not annoyed at all the pointless and humourless stuff...just bored.)

I was really delighted to see you both at the Tudor Harry. I'm sorry you had such difficulty getting there - and hope the return journey wasn't as bad. I heard that the M6 was shut later and we all wondered whether you were affected.

I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves. I hope to see you again soon, if not in Wigan, on the Wirral - I'm feeling more enthused about my poetry at the moment, which always makes me feel like travelling! Give my love to Yvonne xx

Thank you Cynthia for your kind and thoughtful comments. I've no idea whether I'm going through a phase of writing better stuff - that's for others to say - but, if I am, it's not to do with workshops because I don't attend. Hope to run into you one day.

BTW, thanks for reading 'The Bath'. You were spot on. I felt a bit terrified as I wrote it - with the suicide inference, of course, but also with the realization of a society and/or a personal schedule/angst that allows a person to become that emptied. When do we take control?
