Forever Fallen Timber

“Forever Fallen Timber“may be the most romantic poem I’ve ever penned (so far). It was actually inspired by the words above, written by the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas to Caitlin Macnamara, later to become his wife.

I’m pleased to announce that this poem was published today on Spillwords. A huge thank you to Dagmara K. for selecting my poem for publication. I would be honored if you visited the website at this link to read it. And so, I will leave you with one of Dylan’s poems about what’s to be done when love tickles us, unexpectedly.

It’s such a beautiful poem, it’s hard to pick out a fav line or two, yet these resonate so lovingly, “for you ironing all the wrinkles
from my forehead and my ruffles.” Wonderfully romantic, K. 💜 Congratulations!

Thomas is always fun. I’ve heard of tickling trout – do you think that counts?
