WHAT'S THIS?

Having been immersed in memoir writing for many months, I decided to write a small poem every day for a year to keep my poetic hand in. I've posted them to Instagram and facebook as written – where, to my amazement, people love them – but on this blog they are sometimes subject to later rewriting.

She shows me ...

 

She shows me coasters 

and cheeseboards

she’s painted with flowers, 

then sealed. I gasp

at their beauty


She’s created a business

selling them, taking orders.

It grows by word of mouth.

She is my neighbour.

She’s 13.
