I’m very happy to see 4 of my poems in “The Weekly Avocet” a Journal of Nature Poetry in the U.S. My poems “Attached”, “Are We”, “Black Birds” and “Amber Puppy” are in the winter issue #685 January 18, 2026. International publication. Woo hoo.
I love reading and writing poetry. I used to write mostly prose, but now I find poetry to be far more rewarding. Finding those small everyday moments and turning them into a poem. Very gratifying. What about you?

I can see how you’re inspired by events in life. I particularly liked your friend’s pally relationship with crows.

thank you for sharing these libby. I love your inspirations and you seem to have the ability to write poetry about most anything. once when walking in a park, I saw a group of crows gathered in a circle on the ground and as I walked by they looked at me. I felt I had accidentally intruded on an important meeting they were having and wondered if they knew I was friendly or were planning my demise ? )
