I am completely entranced by this sequence. I shall read them over and over again. Best wishes Becky Gethin
I am enjoying your sequence very much. My eyes keep returning to “her patina gaze is unnerving”. Thank you.
Well, now I must visit Dorich House – it’s been on my list of “must do’s” for years. It’s not far from me but somehow I’ve never got there. But this sequence and set my juices flowing – it’s wonderful. I love “girlhood without the games/skipping without the rope”. What a lot that says. It made me want to set this sculpture free. Thanks for a great read.
These are gorgeous, I loved each of them. ‘Mine all mine’ packs a real punch. I’ll never look at a Granny Smith in quite the same way again. Thanks so much for sharing such beautiful work.
Thank you for all your comments and I love the idea of setting the statue free! Dorich House is well worth a visit, for the building as well as Dora Gordine’s sculpture. Becky – we met on one of Roselle’s writing weekends in Cornwall a few years ago – good to hear from you!
I love skipping without the rope. Well done, Alison!
