I took some snow photos

I was obviously very shaky at the weekend, these have come out better, but I've a long way to go. Also, I didn;t leave the house to take any of them.

I like the one with the tree and the lamppost best.

Poetry

I've been reading poetry recently - firstly because I wasn't remembering what I'd read, and then waking up and remembering that I'd read the same chapter three times, I revisited 'The Mersey Sound', a book from three Liverpool poets, Adrian Henri, Roger McGough and Brian Patten, which Clare gave me and in which there are many beautiful, sad or hopeful poems.

Secondly, +seraphimsigrist has been posting the poems of Arseny Tarvosky (in translation).

Here is one I particularly liked - go read more if you also like it.
