Thoughts That Football Brings
With the England men’s valiant effort now fallen by the wayside, I thought I would choose a poem about football—this one is “My Old Football” by J. Milton Hayes.
Laugh and Love as Long Ago
This week’s poem is by a favourite poet: Alfred Noyes. It is “A Devonshire Ditty” which I have chosen for my cousin Linda, the inspiration behind Poet’s Day.
Golden Hours, Silver Days
This week’s choice is “June” by John Updike.
Take a Good Look at These Crows Feet
This week’s choice is the lyrics of “Prettiest Eyes” by The Beautiful South, written by Paul Heaton. I have chosen it for the memories it carries.
