Don’t know who wrote this — it was posted on Instagram by “Warpaint Journal” in April 2025 — but it’s making the rounds today and is pretty great. I dream of this too ❤️

"I didn't mean to fall out of bed after sex" by Lin Hart @poetry-with-hart.bsky.social #nationalpoetrymonth #poem #poetry

It is my mid-term goal as an author to someday be able to afford physical copies of my own books.

Bird Of The Day - (Insectivores) European Robin (Erithacus rubecula) hiding in the long grass. #BirdOfTheDay #Insectivores #EuropeanRobin #Robin #Birds #Wildlife #Ireland #Nature #EastCoastKin #Photography #Birding #NaturePhotography #BirdPhotography #PhotographyIsArt

Yesterday I saw a picture of a Painted Bunting (Passerina ciris) and knew I had to draw it. They are really pretty. I also had a good laugh when I realised they are called "Papstfink" in German, which translates back to "pope finch". Fitting for a member of the cardinal birdfamily 😄 #birdart

“Anyone can show up when you're happy. But the ones who stay by your side when your heart falls apart, they are your true friends.” - Winnie the Pooh My flowering cactus 🌵

Totally didn't create a character that loves birds so I have an excuse to draw birds more... #dnd #sketch #dungeonsanddragons #art #myart #dungeonmaster

Today’s Ars Poetica is a tongue in cheek sonnet by Tony Walsh If you have been following my posts you will know I am fond of a sonnet, a little fist of a poem that punches above its weight. They are easy to appreciate but not so easy to write (well). #Poetry #Poemoftheday #Nationalpoetrymonth

Day 6 is Steven Heighton’s Selected Poems (1983-2020). I don’t like when poets die, especially when it seems that they ought to have had more time to be here with us. I am, though, always so grateful for what they leave behind—their voices clear and strong. These are a couple of my favourites.

Easter is here.

Common Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) This species of finch is native to North-West Africa, Europe & Asia. A 14.5cm (5.7 in) bird, it feeds it's young on spiders, flies, caterpillars and aphids. Terrific photo of a male taken by Martin Crush in the UK. #chaffinch #bird #wildlife #nature #birds #finch
