I adore your writing! I am in a different part of the world, but I could see and feel early Autumn in England through your writing. Thank you for the poem- I have never read it before and it is wonderful.

Your autumn is similar to ours on the west coast of Canada. A very in-between season that tends to last quite awhile. Thank you for sharing your lovely writing.

"Could-do list" is so much better than "should-do"!

“Could-do list” — brilliant! So much better than a “Must-do list”. Adventure awaits the one. Heavily weighted anxiety the other.

Lovely to read the Keats again 🌿 I was born in Winchester, and I spent many happy childhood hours in Hampshire, and all these years on, that poem still evokes those times, even in the 1980s.
