Very lucky to have had poems selected for two gorgeous anthologies, both out just in time for Christmas.
One poem in @blackcatpress.bsky.social's nature anthology 'The Water Knows I Love You' and two in @blackboughpoetry.bsky.social's annual Christmas/winter anthology. Fantastic writers in each! 👌🏼✨
