You write the most beautiful poetry Roselle...

I especially love

"Winds and moons that drive you to madness

and love

which is always a form of madness.

I stand in the stream’s conversation

bruised wild carrot and water mint"

Gorgeous 💚

Hello Becky (have I spelt it right?) - how lovely to hear from you.

Watching from afar the developments with the eco group – too much on my plate to be currently involved but am delighted you are.

Love to you too.

And to you both, Jan. (Devon last year in early May, bluebell time, broke my heart, being back and leaving again...)

Adore these 2 poems, perfect for this time of year. I too am surrounded by swallows & cuckoo's & wild flowers... its a shame bluebells do not grow in Portugal
