Water is life, not a luxury. When greed controls nature, rivers run dry, forests disappear, wildlife dies, and families are left with nothing. Profit should never come before people or the planet. The choices we make today will decide who has a future tomorrow.

I visited Ruskin Mill in Nailsworth today. I had a coffee in the cafe and viewed the magnificent exhibition of paintings. I’m currently researching Saint Sara-le-Kali and the Black Madonna so found the religious paintings hugely inspiring. #RuskinMill #Water #Goethe #Art

‘Birds and Ghosts’ by Jess Richards is a sensitive and creative examination of loneliness, bereavement, and difference. Taking in our need to grieve, the Covid lockdowns, and a late autism diagnosis, this memoir also features the author’s beautiful artwork. It will stay with me for a long time.

Samhain Blessings. Tonight there is an opening between the worlds of the living and the dead. It’s time to remember our ancestors and put photographs on the altar. I carry out a simple ritual every year and often adapt the ritual by Barbara Ardinger. 🙏 #Ritual #Samhain #AncestralHealing

It was so lovely to spend time in my spiritual home, Malvern and revisit Priory Park recently. On my return, I finished working on an operatic musical script for ‘The Legend of the Werewolf’ which will be performed in San Francisco Bay later this year and then on tour. Back to poetry. Peace. ❤️

What a wonderful time we had performing poetry and harp music at the church in the woods on Bramdean common on Saturday. It’s also known as the Gypsy Church. It was absolutely packed with some people sitting outside on the grass, thankfully they were able to hear the music and poetry. 🎶🙏♥️

Thanks to @rainegeoghegan.bsky.social, I wrote about my experience in this beautiful book KIN by @salmonpoetry.bsky.social Things I recognise as part of that purlieu, that diaspora; whispered winds of words themselves, too often packed away. And at the weekend, new revelations, goosebumps .. 3/7

Connecting with my own English Gypsy heritage has been a lifelong background hum, that I can sometimes barely hear; or swells to a choir, as it has recently, thanks to poets & writers such as @joclement.co.uk @rainegeoghegan.bsky.social @louisedoughty.bsky.social @profdavidmorley.bsky.social 2/7
