My poem ‘Quarantine’ was published in September 2020 Quadrant magazine.
Have a read. Hope you enjoy it.
As mentioned previously, I really enjoy writing in a super-short form. I’ve been told I have the ability to distil. So … prose poems and poetry have been added to my repertoire. I’m currently working on a new collection of poetry, prose poems and flash fiction titled ‘Love & A Search for Meaning’. What do you think of this working title for a collection? Any comments much appreciated.
Quarantine:
But there still are the other things –
water’s rhythmic tumble
over rocks,
the gentle hush of wind through leaves –
we celebrate
in solitude.

I do, all of those. Nature never sounded so good as it did when everything was shut down!

yes, Jacqui. surprising how much more we are all noticing the sounds and sights of the world around us after being closed in and shut down for so long. noticing the change in seasons much more, for example.
