My mother sent me out one day to gather cockles from the sea

My poem "Bonny Fisher Boy," written for seajules, is now online at Scheherezade's Bequest, the online counterpart of Cabinet des Fées. It's a small jewel of a journal. This issue, there are gorgeous pieces by Patricia Russo, Alison Lowery, and upstart_crow, too, among others.

Ah, wonderful. I love that one.

Lovely poem. *Actually it squeezes my heart at the end.*

Perhaps this is due to that long-standing crush on Kir from Patricia McKillip's The Changeling Sea.

Bravo!

That's lovely, and also led me to a new bunch of book recommendations of fiction and non-fiction. Thanks!

Oh, lovely. What a beautiful way to end my night. (Even better if I could dream these images tonight!)

Just lovely. I was scrolling through your journal just now, because I wanted to rediscover the name of a movie you talked about, and I decided to click on the link, because I hadn't read it when first you put up this entry.

It quite took my breath away. I lingered on it, then I copied it down (with your name on it, of course) to save, so I could read it again and again.

It's most beautiful love poem I've read in, oh, quite some time, anyway. And it captures the flash and depth of the sea, too.

I have been reading it daily since you announced it was up. I meant to tell you sooner, but kept getting distracted by going to read it again. It still squeezes my heart and steals my breath like an undercurrent.
