Hiya Tommy, thanks for the comment and yes, Miles Platting is a great name which was my reason for personifying the area.. Apparently a shame about the place.

Thank you for reading "Timeline". Your kind comments are most appreciated.
I like "Force Seven".very much. I'm from Georgia, U.S.A., and I know a lot of people recognize us for our accents. I am just as intrigued by accents and expressions different from what I normally encounter in my part of the world. I especially like "Higgledy-piggledy"; Brilliant!

Hi Rachel, The synopsis of the synopsis is: lost love from a third person's perspective who later writes a novel detailing the affair of her sister and a young man. War intervened. But the author changes the end to make it a happy reunion. The novel is written some 50 years or more after the meeting of the lovers. Brilliant book (2001) by Ian McEwan and later a beautiful film (2007) .

Hi Ann,
I love the song too and I wish I could say that I was responsible for it in some was but alas, I cannot. Other than the title means the same as the title of my poem and I feel a deep connection to the song and her voice. I play the wooden flute though so maybe I could learn the song as well and put my version of it out there in cyberspace one day. Hope you're ok in this snowy weather : ) deb xx

Hi Cynthia , I am not Welsh. I will have to look at the Celtic reference's regarding coffin and plural. As always an interesting point.

Hi, cheers for the nice comments guys!
The idea of univocalism was introduced to me by one of my friends (also a poet).
Basically it's just writing a piece which only includes one vowel all the way through. I highly recommend giving it a go - it's lots of fun!
I would be very interested to hear anyone's attempts at univocalism in 'U' (very difficult!)

Hi Jenni - like your poetry, esp the moth who wasn't a moth, and the one about poor Meg. What is univocalism? Is it what it sounds like, i.e. reciting the poem all on one note? I am intrigued! Maybe you should try and do an audio. Glad you like performing - I haven't tried it yet! My new year's resolution!

Hi Emma - thanks for the lovely poem you left on the WOLOP blog - you should blog that one too! You just have to go back into mystic fairy and update it but putting WOLOP.dec in the tag at the bottom. It's not the end of the world if you can't do it. I'm sure people will be able to find it through the profile. Your comments are much appreciated. x

Hello Alli, thank you for your lovely, kind words on Villtur Augu. There is double, treble meanings, you're right.

I wish you all the best for this coming decade, keep writing your lovely words too, sister muse, (I love that term, thank you) : ) Deb xx

Hello Cynthia and Happy New Year. .Thank you for your kind comments on Villtur Augu.I hope I didn't cause you to waffle for too long : ) I didn't mean the stone Angels, ( that sounds like a band) more about individuals who I could take to be one thing, but who could be another.Judging them by clouded thoughts when they could be Angels in covens. hmm, sometimes I lose part of myself..sometimes I also lose another person..but you're right,neither are dead in the literal sense, it just feels like it at times. thanks again for reading and giving my words so much thought, deb xx

Hi John,
Thanks for your kind remarks about my requiem, and 'Close' - much appreciated. I have to say my favourite is the lachrymosa from Mozart's requiem - always moves me (yes - to tears!). Though I like the Fauré too.
Is it a bit barmy to like something that makes you cry? .....probably. Hey ho.

Hi Sheridan, I've really enjoyed reading your posts so far. You're work is full of strong emotion and inner thought. 'THE WORD WEIRD' is a favourite for me. I love the defiant ending which tells me you're always going to be true to yourself so please don't even change, simply grow.
