The Little Things
From A Prompt By Cendrine Marrouat
This is the prompt for this piece
The sandal could have been picked up by a creature to build a nest or someone may have picked it up and thrown it away, or it may have been the sandal that they lost.
I have to do a sequence of four poems thinking about the importance of butterflies and bees to continued existence. They are tiny but without them, we would not be here.
The song is "Beeswing" a tragically beautiful song by Richard Thompson the only connection is the Bee but it is an excuse to share this beauty.

Someone Watching Over Me
Introduction. On Friday my Auntie Joan died aged 85, my dad had been looking after her, so she wasn't alone. I phoned my sister Yvonne (she told me it had happened) and my daughters Kirsty and Juliet, and eventually got in touch with my dad and we spoke at length.
