Premium Member TURF OUT THE WILDLIFE
More rural space becomes an urban scar As man’s machines arrive and start to scrape Through living loam down to the dead grey clay. Hedges ripped out and carted off to tip, Trashing nests and burrows right from the start. The babbling brook that supplied the small pond Is piped to concrete culvert underground Destroying one more vital...

Your Turf
I am a homegrown girl but I have traveled to many places around the world. I am a home-grown girl and you can find me on the map with just a single dot. I am a home-grown girl in search of my permanent soul. I love variety, I value diversity and I cherish honesty....

Its time now come to arise from the meadow supreme, preparing to host bug life...

On My Turf
Our family isn’t very big But still, it’s kind of rare When there’s a holiday and all Can congregate somewhere. It’s been a year since Henry’s birth And though we’ve all united, It’s never been where I reside (Of course, they’ve been invited). Until this weekend past, that is, When Henry came to visit. His parents and his aunt came, too, And it was...

Turf To Tummy
The turf fires glow reduced to ash A million years of bog history As I watched the glowing embers My mind took me back To a nearly forgotten time When the turf ruled the hearths And cranes swung pans over its heat Boiling the “spuds” and baking the bread Keeping habs hot to warm cold bums Now and then a new piece would...
