Signed copy of ‘Falling For a Dolphin’ by Heathcote Williams found in my local bookshop today . I have just finished reading ‘Whale Nation’ and loved it an incredibly moving poem for the ocean’s noble giants. #poetry #booksky #naturewriting

I had a lovely time reading my poems in the drawing room at Port Eliot amongst the portraits and flowers and history.

Painted Lady butterfly on the magical heather strewn Tregoss Moor, a Piskey realm. So good to be out story adventuring again!
