Excellent, Dai. Every sense tingles with your acute descriptions. Take you into a child's world. Love the description of snow's depth by a "ruler". Profound, meditative poetry.
Thrilled to be featured as a Black Bough Silver Branch Poet. With the support and assistance of @MatthewMCSmith I have moved my writing on. Now also exploring creative non fiction, mining a rich seam of childhood memories. Thank you Mattππππ«π
Black Bough are π thrilled π€©to present the 2020 Christmas special for the βSilver Branchβ feature series - poems & prose by Swansea-born poet Dai Fry @thnargg
