Mist, Reflections and A Poem

Driving from Truro to Penryn this morning, the mist was sitting in the valleys.

I love reflections of boats in the river..

I am the Song by Charles Causley is a long time favourite.

New Topper, Shadow and A Poem

There’s a new postbox topper on our street, four frogs fishing.

The evening sunlight lit up our lovely boat sculpture and threw a pleasing shadow.

I came across this poem, Rhapsody by William Stanley Braithwaite, today and wondered why I had never read it before. It’s in the book, A Poet for Every Day of the Year edited by Allie Esiri.

By William Stanley Braithwaite 1878 – 1962

Beautiful Day, New Book and A Poem

What a glorious day! After after our walk this afternoon we sat by the sea in the sunshine  and listened to the shushing of waves on the shingle – such joy.

I have a new poetry book “A Poet for Every Day of the Year” and I love it. It is a truly eclectic collection of 366 poets from all over the world, some of whom I know and many that I don’t. Each one comes with a mini-biography and it is all quite fascinating-.

It is my Dear Dad’s birthday today so I will share with you the delightful poem, new to me as is the poet, that is for January 13th. I think my Dad would have enjoyed this one. .
