Some words by me...

Thanks so much @dpadartmoor.bsky.social... am thrilled to be part of the Wild Words project.
Today we're delighted to share 'Lychway' by Jon Vernon, read by Simon Dell. This evocative #poem takes you to a grey #Dartmoor day when the separation between past & present feels thin.

Wild Words #magazine launches on the 28th Nov.

I love the dramatic scene. The stark, sculptural cliffs & the breaking waves of the sea.

I'm not seeing nearly enough dogs here, nor hearing enough about canine antics/misdemeanours/heroic achievements.

I give you Bowie the Sprocker looking remorseful after shredding a toy on newly hoovered carpet, & Little Bean watching from the sofa like butter wouldn't melt.
