Dramatic oil painting of waves in a stormy sea: Blues, olive greens and ochres, mixed with warm white in lines and swirls of dark and light. A sky of dark clouds and bright light above it.

Said the wave to the one behind
'There is an end to the sea'
'Impossible,' said the wave behind
'Nothing can stop me'
(Lemn Sissay)

Semi abstract seascape: indigo and ochre sky, with sunlit clouds above a still, indigo ocean; land rising along the right side of the horizon, suggesting of sailing boat to the let, low lying sea fog and suggestion of rocks and vegetation in the foreground.

I want the sun to be you
And the sky to be me
By the coast and gulls
And rhyming sea

REVIEW: Let the Light Pour In - Lemn Sissay ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’m not normally a fan of poetry, but I love Sissay’s writing. I loved this compilation of beautiful life affirming & witty poems that he’s written over the past 10 years. Sissay’s narration is beautiful too.

Just finished this one. I love Sissay’s writing, and his narration is top notch. I loved the compilation of beautiful life affirming and witty poems - and I’m not normally a fan of poetry!

Lucky to see the wonderful Lemn Sissay in Kendal again. 90 minutes on a precipice of joy, sadness, poignancy and truth.
