As woman reaches middle age,

her middle bits shed hairs;

so why’s it fair that ageing trees,

grow leaves fed by her tears?

If you would prefer to read something sensible about trees, take a read of: Giving Up the Day Job 6: A Diary, which contains an Amazon affiliate link to a recommended book for tree fans.

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.
