Recordings

"Santa Fe" Poem

My poem Santa Fe has been transformed into a beautiful song by the band LiTTLe MACHiNe, whose first CD of poems-as-songs is out now. I'm the most obscure poet on their track list, so have a good listen to all the famous ones, especially the compelling melody for Mean Time by Carol Ann Duffy.

"Act of Faith" on Little Episodes

The Poetry Society at The National Trust

For 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.
