Inspired by a visit to West Stow Anglo-Saxon Village.
Dry-grey thatch.
Gapped.
And drafty.
An ageing roof
in need of repair.
Dry-grey fringe.
Frizzed.
And stringy.
An ageing thatch
in need of repair.
Restoration?
Expensive.

Freelance writer and descendant of the cave dweller and outlaw, Humphrey Kynaston. Banished from Shropshire for my eccentricity, I have made my home in Suffolk. I write poetry, short stories, travel journals, comedy gig reviews and non-fiction articles. My wish is to write my way back into the heart of my birth land. All writing commissions (and free holidays in Shropshire!) considered.
