Early Autumn

I love Autumn, I have never been able to stop the new pencils and folders optimism that was inbred after so many September school starts. I think it was further fed by university and loving everyone coming back after summer adventure – or in my case summer working in local pubs and an Edinburgh festival.

Some lovely poetry news. My poem Don’t Open the Door is to be included in a spooky Halloween Anthology produced by Hedgehog Poetry Press.

The skull in the grass-
Puff ball fungi looking spooky
