Yes please, I do want to keep reading the random thoughts of Dearbhaile Bradley! And, erm – you do yourself a disservice by saying you don’t want to keep writing ‘bad’ poetry… take a break if you want, but don’t say never again, please! No-one else can write what you write.

It’s the 26th there……i have been looking forward to your January blog!. if you’re perhaps contemplating not bothering to share your wonderful writing in this medium, could you please just consider photocopying a letter? (only joking!, too many trees!).
Have really enjoyed the candle. It appears that we’re at that age where friends leave, so it’s particularly soothing to honour their energy with a soft, warm light. Thank you from Randy too (he’s had a few of his/our friends die recently). Hope to see you this year or next. Whatever works for your schedule. Let me know. Love and hugs always,

So happy to read this. So pleased you’ve found a room that doesn’t accuse you! Looking forward to attending your seminar… Enjoy all the time you have there, your own comforting cave-space. And may you find a man with a voice like chocolate who reads aloud to you. Much love, Joxx

Ah, Mary Oliver – she knows, she’s been there.
Maybe you are ‘here’ to learn how to cherish yourself as a child of the earth, equally as wonderful as every stone, leaf and raindrop.
I love your image of the pot ‘wavering into shapelessness’ (as a player with clay!) – the raw material always remains to be continually reformed.
But please don’t believe that ‘no-one is affected by my despair’. And it’s wonderful that you’ve been ‘given back the sky’ – one of the greatest delights in my life too.
May imbas find you in the dark night,
love and light to you too, dear friend,
Joxx

Hi Dearbhaile

Lovely post! I love that poem of yours… sounds like you’ve found a good place to be; I’m glad. So you know, and can publicise if you want to: the first “Inaugaural Seminar” is on Tuesday November 8th; yours I think we settled on Tuesday 13th December, didn’t we? I’ve already been publicising it as that.
