Ideas from Laurie Lee and Emily Dickinson #poem
“All around me, the day is starting. All I feel is the hurt of parting.
I could not stop for love, but you stopped for me. Stole my heart for all eternity”

"At best, love is simply the slipping of a hand in another's, of knowing you are where you belong at last, and of exchanging through the eyes that all-consuming regard which ignores everybody else on earth."
✒️ #LaurieLee, English poet and author, #DOTD 13 May 1997. #Poetry
Laurie Lee – Cider with Rosie (1959). Beautifully written account of traditional Cotswolds village life circa World War I. Lyrical and witty, Lee captures a lost world. I’d have preferred an overarching narrative, as some episodes seem disjointed, but other passages are riveting. #LaurieLee
I felt it was for this I had come: to wake at dawn on a hillside and look out on a world for which I had no words, to start at the beginning, speechless and without plan, in a place that still had no memories for me...

The Woolpack, Slad, in Laurie Lee's home village sells his books. Which other pubs do this?

#Christmas #Advent #Poetry Day 3. Today I have chosen a poem that embodies the bitter cold of a December night. The descriptions of #nature and #wildlife from Laurie Lee, a local hero where I live, are very moving. Consider reading more of #LaurieLee poetry and maybe gifting it this Christmas
