It’s years since I had a copy of this mighty, moody work ‘Remains of Elmet’ and I’ve been looking for another copy since someone borrowed it and it was not returned. Most seem to be about £40 or £50 but I got this today for a tenner in Swansea. #TedHughes #poetry #elmet

Thank you, I rarely write love poems so that's good to hear. We are wearing up on almost 4 decades of marriage so the in-jokes are getting pretty obscure and definitely eccentric!

I just remembered this poem that was published in 2023, another uncharacteristic one for me in that it's a love poem, albeit on the whimsical side. Last one from me @jenthorne.bsky.social I promise! For #PromptCombo #Doors From Gypsophila Zine, vol 2 issue 6 in September 2023

Here is another go at #PromptCombo #Doors (it seems I have a lot of doors in my poems. This one is unpublished, @jenthorne.bsky.social. Sometimes hard bad things are behind doors, and sometimes we think they are bad because we don’t know them or couldn’t cope ourselves. Go kids!
