I hear you on telling people. I often start with all the other stuff I do / write and then just slip poetry in at the end like it’s some sort of lurid guilty pleasure. Thank you for making me think about this and vow to practise changing that x

So often people react with “oh I don't get poetry” and that sort of leaves me unsure how to proceed …

Your garden is beautiful. I kill everything. I'm death to plants so I so admire people who can grow things. But I really love reminder to breathe and let my poetry breathe too.
