I feel incredibly lucky to have both these haiku published by Tinywords. I can’t tell you how many I write that just don’t work – luck plays a big part I think.
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. X
(Btw I see you are an allumna of Hallam. my daughter completed her PGCE there a couple of years ago and we really enjoyed visiting Sheffield and its surrounding countryside)
oh, second tinywords this week I’m not crying….

Sheffield’s a beautiful city – lots of green spaces. Thanks for taking time to read and comment. Hope your daughter is enjoying teaching. X
I love this. I came back a week later to read it again. Thank you 💕
