Do you know who wrote this, Janet? Each week in the summer the members of my local museum meet for a ‘conversazione’, a couple of members have half an hour or so to talk on something interesting, something from history, a hobby, a botany project, or one lady talked about how she breeds native species of butterflies. Anyway, each week I have been deputised to read a poem. It would be fun to read this one next week.

I should have put it in there Clare (will edit to add) – it is by Rose Milligan from Lancaster in Lancashire.
