I haven’t been posting lately – I got unwell last year and have been in hospital a couple of times, but getting stronger day by day – yay!
One of my publishers just asked me to make a bio – she said I could draw it if it was easier…so here’s the result!
Wishing you all a beautiful 2013, full of good bits, sparkly bits, romantic bits, playful bits, fighting-for-those-who-need-someone-in-their-corner bits and tons and tons of giggly bits. Oh, and a huge hug and love too, linda xx
a ship to sail away in
take your dreams and play in
on an ocean wide as lovesong
and lit by Monday stars
a man who’s travelling far
he’s dreamt this day for years
across the waves he sings
and meets a friendly creature
happy as daybreak
peering from around a wave
saying: shall we play?
lighthouses and lovers
both dazzling the sky
with their bright sighs
and light songs
rare seagulls are these
building nests from lost songs
and memory shards
sometimes they perch
on the lighthouse
and peer inside
when the keeper’s watching
David Attenborough documentaries
- they’re the best
they come to sea to sing
bright songs as loud as waves
and the sea salt and breeze make their moustaches flourish
and their songs get louder still
