Beautiful poem

[Live Canon Poetry @LiveCanon]

So sad to hear the news about Kathryn Bevis. Rereading this poem from our 2020 anthology which is infused with a fierce kindness that was in so much of her writing.

Found my book in the National Poetry Library today. I opened it as well so that was a first for it.

Thanx so much @Nell_Nelson for finding this. And I’m so glad you never went to boarding school!! Got to appreciate @TamarYoseloff @glynmaxwell @poetryschool for all the learning that I refer to in this piece with @CharlotteGann

[HappenStance Press @Nell_Nelson]

To think that (after Enid Blyton, and then the Chalet School) I LONGED to go to boarding school. The very last thing I would have wanted: John White tells it like it was: https://t.co/BPPOLPekMZ @CharlotteGann

[Emma Simon @SimpleSimonEmma]

This is an AMAZING collection of poems, congratulations Black Iris. Delighted to be between the sheets, so to speak, with so many fab poets.

[johnwhiteprods @johnwhiteprods]

So much enjoyed this conversation with @CharlotteGann on the Understory Conversation, which touches the parts other blogs do not reach...& thanx as ever to @TamarYoseloff and my colleagues in her groups for critically helpful cuts and tweaks to the poem https://t.co/rDIswShkrS

[johnwhiteprods @johnwhiteprods]

probably more important than my self-marketing today...

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

Tomorrow NHS funding faces the biggest real-terms cuts since the 1970s.

The Conservatives really are bad for your health.

Please RT if you agree the general election cannot come soon enough.

Anything with @CharlotteGann poems in it must be worthy of an award!

Winning the Michael Marks Publisher's Award is a team effort! Thanks to this year's wonderful poets: @HendryKate and Blake Morrison (both short-listed), @CharlotteGann, @saccharinequeen & @psdcarpenter, and to our brilliant designer Robert Dalrymple.

The Understory Conversation is where we can talk about all the things there's no time or space to talk about on social media!

[Roger Robinson @rrobinson72]

When #transportforlondon put this poem in the tube, every day I’d receive messages about the poem calming anxiety. That’s the reason that I write, to be in service. Get the Black History Month handout that begins with this poem on the tube with lots of great Black British Poets

[johnwhiteprods @johnwhiteprods]

Wonderful Tammy! This was enough to get me back to this place after months away!

[johnwhiteprods @johnwhiteprods]

Wonderful. Thanx for posting @nessalampert

[Vanessa Lampert @nessalampert]

Wonderful poem in @NewYorker from @glynofwelwyn
