My writer profile (above) appeared in yesterday’s Echo Newspaper. Even though I’ve been writing poetry for years it always seems strange to see oneself called a poet in print. Anyway it’s great to get the publicity.
Susan Condon has been keeping track here of all the poets featured in the series which is linked to the hugely successful reading series organised and facilitated by Eileen Casey in the County Library in Tallaght between October and December last year. Peruse the profiles at your leisure.
By the way, I’m not always as serious as I look in the photo. Honestly…
Lovely sonnet, Brian. Written by a suitably serious looking writer!
Thanks Valerie! Enjoyed your story Mirage at Five Stop.
Love this poem Brian – but so sad. Having lost our beautiful cocker spaniel last year I can relate to how we treat canines and felines like humans; they are, after all, such a part of the family . . .
Thanks Susan – yes, written after the death of my poor old cat, Homer.
A very moving sonnet, Brian. Well done.
James.
Thanks James. Hope all is good with you.
