Out comes the blanket, the tea, and the munchies...

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

I'm usually too busy for t'interwebz on a Sunday....

My beloved poetry group was cancelled this month due to flooding, which made me sad, but I'm writing plenty and have been to two readings (with five poets) recently so my current relationship with poetry is feeling positive.

I reviewed Sean O'Brien's book November at my journal. It's a mixed review of a complex collection but there is one short, funny, unrepresentative poem ostensibly about Marmite (link to wikipedia for non-Brits/South Africans/New Zealanders):

I hope you all have a good week.
