Sincere thanks. A shame there were no other entries this time - it's much more fun to watch the voting :anx: !

Blessings

Bless you Nikki. I am so very pleased you liked it. Adding lyrics and vocals to my music is very much a new enterprise for me; I am sure it will take more than a few lifetimes for me to come even close to the beauty of your wonderful poetry.

As for 'Haunting', yesterday around thirty of our Isle of Wight Grove celebrated Samhuinn at the Longstone in thick, swirling mist. For much of the time I wondered if I was the only one there! Now that really was haunting!

Twyrch - my most sincere thanks and I am so very pleased you liked this piece. Your poem "Heaven was needing a Grandma" brought tears to my eyes and is without doubt one of the finest and most meaningful and poignant poems I have ever read.

Blessings
