Conversations in sonnet

Several years ago now - perhaps in 2001 - my husband (David) and I began to write sonnets to one another.  They developed into a conversation - everything from the normal every day strife of getting along, to the passion we share for words and each other.  This conversation has continued for 6 years.  We have our moments when there is a lull and then we begin again.  Our range of topics is amazing to me when I look back on it.  We shared poems about lunch together, we made it a sensual experience to be remembered as more than just grabbing a bit to eat.  It is this type of dialogue that has helped keep our marriage, and our lives, strong.  Not that we don’t have the occasional hiccup - we do - however, writing through these times has become a saving grace to us both.

 

Welcome

As a woman - lover - poet and mother, I welcome you to my blog.  It may not be updated very often as life tends to pull me in many directions at once - not all of which allow me to wander back as quickly as I’d like.  You will find poetry, prose, and random musings here.  I’ll include links to places I think you may enjoy travelling as well.

Be well - write well - Siobhan
