Loved your grudge poem, it almost felt like an Australian psalm because of your reference to Australian trees. All those plants metaphors... So so good. Really loving your poems Bec!
I've recently read two Katrina Nannestad books (we are wolves and rabbit, soldier, angel, thief). They're for children but they are amazingly beautiful ✨ highly recommend even for reading for yourself!
Love this line: "Google doesn’t know what it means for a mother
to see her daughter’s resurrected name
soaring on a silken wing,
a rare moth in the moonlight."
I'm currently reading "Comfort Me With Apples" by Ruth Reichl and it's good! So far, none of her other books compare to "Save Me the Plums", but this one might be a close second!

Thank you so, so much for the encouragement Kym! Really appreciate it. Those books sound delightful 💛💛💛
Loved the Google poem! And who knew you could wear a sweater and a dress so many ways?!
Aww thanks!! And yes, I am amazed at that combo. I feel like I’ve expanded my wardrobe now 😂
I accidentally smushed a bee when I rolled up the window in car lane and it refused to fly away. Your story was much lovelier.
Hahahaha thanks friend 🙌🏼
