Resonances
The past few weeks have been marked by resonances. Voices from poetry, history or theatre have figured so strongly that they are escaping from my mind, ready to leap onto the written page.
Choices
The hound and I have been out and about this week. Temperatures soared once more. At times the light had a flat brightness that could cut glass.
