Dear N,

“ in shadows
of the morning sun
your artist hands
bow and pick:
the safe in beds
and last pence
from my pocket” what an amazing phrase. The artistry of your metaphors are really lovely. This poem had me in a park I favor and I could relate to the overall tenor of this lovely write. It had a relaxing calm over me and I really am grateful for that today. H🌷

Thanks so much H. Sorry for not replying or commenting a lot but I appreciate your writing and presence very much.

Your metaphors...I just don't even know what to say. You write so beautifully, Andrew.

Thank you Eerie, very appreciated, you are way too generous also but really nice to hear

There must be something in the Yorkshire water! Such a grasp of humanity in a lineage of poets, of which, I most definitely include yourself. Rob

if i sound disingenuous its cos if i felt i possessed a fingertip of their talent i wouldn't be here. But you encourage in the best way, big fukin' appreciated.

This is where I'll end my visit to site today, in a place of soulful presence that reaches out through it's gravity of full dimensioned metaphor. You've granted amazing depth to the photograph. I was out riding my bike earlier and thinking about the surgical snap of the lens, the hunter's stalk and capture. Each stanza has a presence of time, loss, the absence that remains, the fleeting shadow of our lives. It's haunting and deeply resonant.

Thanks so much Daniel:)

Really pretty, I love how you use the title and background picture to give dimension to the poems words creating subtle meaning with an enduring message, it's real artistry..

I just noticed and I dont know why I didnt respond, I'm so sorry.

Thanks so much for your kind words. Wishing you lots of inspiration for Napo too.

You're welcome and welcome back also, it's going good so far :)
