Let’s Make Sounds like Water by Angela Readman
I carry the china to the kitchen and find my mother at six sitting under the table. Cross-legged, she picks at a bowl of pickled onions and cheese, sucking her fingers.

Lovely surprise for one of my poems, Sexing the Rabbits, to be included on BBC Radio 3's Words & Music Show. Never had a poem on the radio before, so exciting! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
