Your poem ‘The house is silent ….something
shifts.” is excellent.My question is whether is there any extension of the poem or not ?
I will be obliged if you please reply.
With regards

You are a master of the English Language and it is your ability to reach adults and children alike which I am an ardent fan of. Your listening-thinking poem is absolutely charming, most beautiful. I can ‘feel’ as I read. I just finished listening to your podcast Word of Mouth titled’ A Murmuration of Starlings’ and loved the bit where you say you know a thing or two about bears (sleuth of bears being discussed!). That is one of the best poems I love singing/performing with the children (I am a supply teacher and NEVER miss a chance to get singing-We’re going on a Bear Hunt) whenever I get the opportunity-else I ‘make’ one! You are blessed to have such an intimate relationship with words, with the English language and its history. Thank you for being there and contributing your precious gems of wisdom to humankind. I am your ardent fan, Guneet
