The new season begins this Sunday. Everyone is welcome. Tickets and details: tomhirons.com/feral-angels Enthusiasm and a love of poetry are the only requirements.

#Canterbury #Daytrip

Fairy tales sometimes arm heroines with brooms instead of swords. In German stories, a girl may ride one, sweep with one, or trick spirits using one. Domestic tools become magical weapons in disguise. #MythologyMonday

It's been perfect weather on my day trip to #Canterbury today. It's absolutely beautiful at the cathedral. #daytrip #CanterburyCathedral

Dear Mr. Creeley, #poetry

#poem #poetry #retail #highstreet #shops

I've never taken so long to research and write a book (due to #longcovid) so I've never been so delighted to hold a new book in my hands! I can't wait to share these #CelticTales, and @elisecillustration.com's stunning illustrations, with everyone! I don't have to wait long, it's published on 16 Oct

Honoured to be voted best in show at Newcastle Arts Centre Exhibition there were so many fantastic paintings. Painting was inspired by childhood memories of buying fruit in paper bags #Art #Stilllife #painting #england @ArtinAmerica @Keswickbootco Paulmorganclarke.etsy.com

I loved the @poetrydayuk.bsky.social Microaggression Bingo resource about Fatimah Asghar’s bold poem. #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity

Are you free next Sunday? Do you live in Oxford? I'm running a noticing workshop at Caper Books for children ages 5 to 9.

I was looking through my poetry notes this morning, before starting to write a new poem, and found my I am so happy poem, inspired by a @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social workshop. Thank you. It made me happy. #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity #workshop

New blog post: Five of my favourite children’s poems plus where to fine them/listen to them. Hopefully good for @poetrydayuk.bsky.social and for schools tackling poetry units of study throughout the year. brian-moses.blogspot.com

I had tried to write in a question-and-answer style before, but it was only after reading the recent blog by Pie Corbett that I felt happy with my ideas. #Poem #Poetry #PoetryCommunity childrenspoetrysummit.com/2023/10/12/p...

Few #singers can do this powerful tune justice. #EvaCassidy is one of them that could. She recorded this live performance not too long before her death due to skin cancer at 32 at #BluesAlley. #BridgeOverTroubledWater #PaulSimon #CoverSongs youtube.com/watch?v=YHYW...

Wow! The color, the images, the scents, so sensory! Fabulous!

I missed #WednesdayWIP by @thebrokenspine.co.uk, but here is something I’m working on.

Certain numbers accompany us through our lives, connected to our memories of people and places, of significant events. What numbers remain with you decades later? And why? This poem is taken from Whatever You Do, Just Don't (HappenStance Press, 2023), my second full collection...

#wordoftheweek #poetry #poem Shiny dish, bronzed and speckled with sprinkled stars. A pink spoon pauses beside. Squashed satchel. Slouchy lounge clothes swapped for smooth culottes, cords, velours, suedes, and cheerful accessories.

I love the community around this event!

I attempt to paint, of all things, a shimmer of geode stone mauves with a beginner-friendly tutorial. #Poem #Poetry #PoetryCommunity I improvise with sugar, spilled like weather on dark violet wet paint, chasing the crystalline magic that rock salt I don't have, they say, might conjure.
