I enjoyed another delightful evening of poetry, laughter and
food earlier this week with my West Cumbrian literary friends. The foggy evening in no way detracted from
the evening’s theme of spring, as earlier, the day had been a beautiful gift of
warm sunshine and gentle winds, a jewel in the golden crown heralding the new
season
Our readings were varied with several of us choosing pieces
from the talented and popular American poet Billy Collins. There were old
favourites from Gerard Manley Hopkins and Wordsworth (no, not THAT one) and
even an account of lambs racing from The Countrychild
