An older poem of mine. The beach pottery mosaic is a piece of wall-art I made from pottery shards found on various Welsh beaches, while recovering from a spell of mental illness. This process felt as if I was putting my own broken pieces back together as well. From my first book 'Surfacing' (2018).

Apologies for my absence from here for more than a year. I have been struggling with breast cancer and also broke my wrist and lost my beloved dog. I am now in remission from the cancer, so I hope to be here more often. Image by Maggie Vandewalle.
I'm going away for a while so look after yourselves while I'm gone! Back in a week or so. Thank you for your support of my account. ☺️ Art: 'Goodbye' by Andrew Wyeth.
