'Santa Fe' Recorded by LiTTLe MACHiNe

I'm thrilled to announce that my poem 'Santa Fe' has been transformed into a beautiful song and recorded by the band LiTTLe MACHiNe, whose first CD of poems-as-songs is out now.

The Poetry Society at The National Trust

Osterley Park and HouseFor the Poetry Society's Centenary, the London South-West Stanza successfully collaborated with Osterley Park, a beautiful National Trust property in Hounslow, where we organised poetry workshops for families (encompassing young readers and their grandparents) and also a poetry competition for different age groups.

I was inspired to write a whole series of poems about sumptuous Osterley Park myself - both for adults and children.
