#FullMoon soon and it's #HuntersMoon so here's a poem I wrote for The Hunter's Moon in 2022. (2022 was the year I decided to stand under each full moon and then write a poem for that very moon.)

In which I have my favourite word break so far when discovery becomes disco very…

A thoroughly enjoyable listen. Highly recommended...

Recent additions to the #ElasticBandPhotos ‘So Long on the Carpet’ and ‘O’

My poem, SEARCHING FOR SEA GLASS AT FIFTY-FIVE, is having an outing today... #Poetry #Poem

From the inbox we have ‘Thought of You’ and ‘Nearly in the Middle’ #ElasticBandPhotos

Today’s joy is wishing happy 6th birthday to ‘Magnifying Glass’…

‘I’m hiding can you see me’ #ElasticBandPhotos (A discarded elastic band on shingle is blending in.) Hooray for the inbox brighteners of this world!

Hooray for the joy of #ElasticBandPhotos in the inbox! Here’s ‘O on Lego Brick Pavement’ (A yellowy discarded elastic band on a bobbled yellow pavement.)

Happy Monday and a #LiftToTheSky for @jenthorne.bsky.social because I have thoroughly enjoyed the range of poems posted here. ✍️❤️🎉

A note found on the sideboard reads: Icebox (Wednesday) and inspires a poem... ICEBOX WEDNESDAY I found your note about those cold plums you had hidden away in the fridge waiting for your lunch I’m sorry I couldn’t resist and now they are gone

Celebrating 'The Plough' by making it Poem of the Month on my website resulted in unlinking a lot of my pages and the need to interrupt my wife for tech support. Anyway... if you like poems being read to you, here's a simple YouTube link to this face reading you The Plough! youtu.be/g8qlSvrYNK4

Delighted to have my poem 'The Plough' included here. Especially since it was written for #NationalPoetryDay AND it's a love poem!

Went out to find the best stick in the garden only to realise I have a thing for trimming them a lot this year! Still, there are enough nubbles for hanging things from for now. View from my chair with a pint o’ water. Happy Saturday!

Today I had the joy of visiting the poetry group at the retirement village to record the group poem 'God's Moving the Furniture Around' which was written for #NationalPoetryDay 2026.

This Is Just To Say I have eaten the poems that were in your typewriter and which you were probably saving for National Poetry Day Forgive me they were delicious so sweet and so bold #NationalPoetryDay

October on the calendars brings: #LookThere Ronnie in autumn leaves in Betws-y-Coed #ElasticBandPhotos ' Leaf Under Matryoshka Moon': A discarded elastic band in the gutter makes the shape of a matryoshka doll. A leaf adds interest.

In my inbox today I was gifted ‘Oo’. (A discarded elastic band on the pavement is twirled and makes an oo.) #ElasticBandPhotos

Today’s joy is a cup of tea in a newly gifted mug.

This poem is having an outing today. It's TopTweetTuesday AND I found my first conker of the season at the weekend in someone else's town.

Some poems have flown back and are asking for a polish. Two say they want better endings so that's this morning's mission.

This kind of day.

My poem written for the #FullMoon and celebrating that it is #HarvestMoon

this is just to say i have eaten the moon that was in my orbit and which you were probably wanting to observe forgive me it was delicious so crunchy and so cold

This is my representation of ‘The Anniversary Poems’. I am still contemplating filling a few of the gaps but top of the shop is definitely going to be 75. Happy poet dance for the inspiration to bring all these into being. 🪩✍️❤️

Ronnie definitely looks like he is celebrating this milestone! Although to be fair he jumps for joy for every episode. Thanks to everyone who listens and takes time with the words. The 150th episode of “Singing as the Darkness Lifts” on PodBean.

Today’s joy is coffee + conversation whilst waiting for a mot. The mot was planned, the coffee + conversation beautiful moments arising from just sitting in a particular chair at a particular time near someone who had lovely chat for these listening ears. And my phone’s only out because she’s gone.

This week's blog post, "Tide's Out!" is now available, and so are the tickets for the North West Winter Wool Festival that will get you a free download of my new Tide's Out shawl design! https://kathandrewsdesigns.com/2026/09/22/tides-out/

My email drafting this morning: TThankThanThThankThanThhank *pauses for tea*

If you've got 70 seconds I've got 'STUNT GIRL'... youtu.be/w86yIQ26Apk
