Read By: Eryl Shields Written By: Eryl Shields Length: 0:40 Introduction: This is a short poem inspired the mixing bowl my mother used to make all our cakes in, and that I have now inherited.
Rosa ~ my Italian is incredibly sketchy, so although I can translate most of the words it's a very literal translation that makes little sense, but thank you. I passed by your blog but couldn't leave a comment.
Fantastic blog. Called by to let you know the first book in my series is (finally!) hitting the shelves in June. Please check my blog if you're interested - Cut Short by Leigh Russell. Watch out for an invitation to my Virtual Book Launch which will be coming your way soon (if I can work out how to scan my signature...)
Thanks for visiting. Glad you've discovered and like Melrose. Hope it lasts! I enjoyed hearing your poem and that you were "inspired" by the bowl to write it. I shall be posting a poem (ahem) tomorrow inspired by the Read Write Poem website's weekly prompt.
Derrick ~ In that case I will come over first thing.
I was quite startled by Melrose: it's so pretty, has a real buzz about it, and it's only about an hours drive along a beautiful road. I don't know how I hadn't found it before!
As this blog has slightly fallen off the twig you can find me more regularly at my main blog thekitchenbitchponders.blogspot.com Sorry, I have no idea how to put a link in a comment box.
Brilliant. It's amazing the feeling such a simple object can invoke. When I was looking up storytelling pieces I also found this one and thought it was great. I Wanted to share it with others who can appreciate it. /www.life123.com/parenting/education/storytelling/the-art-of-storytelling-2.shtml
James ~ I was sure I'd replied to your comment months ago, do apoligise, and thank you for sharing that link I had a look and it was really interesting.
Elizabeth ~ I thought I'd replied to this too, something about my telephone voice! I love the Australian accent, as I do all accents. Mine, I think, is a bit bland all the interesting sounds have been ironed out.
Lori ~ thank you. This was the first poem I wrote about which my tutor said needed no more work. That was a good day!

A wonderful resonant poem here, Eryl. And how lovely to hear the sound of your voice, so British to my Australian ears, so fine, deep and honest.
Absolutely wonderful poem. I love poems that take a new perspective on something ordinary yet so full of symbolism.
