A piece of poetry, a fragment of myself, composed whilst cycling through spring rain and in unabashed gratitude for bright heralds that call us out of wintry times.

The swifts are back in town! Lovely to hear their aerial cries & see their dark wings over Bridport again.
Come along on 20 May to celebrate this year's arrival & find out more about next year's #BridportSwiftTown

Heard a cuckoo calling from our front garden yesterday eve! A wonderful end of May Day treat for the ears, and first time ever on my home patch, but not much of a welcome party from the British Summer Time so far...
