Welcome:

This blog was prompted by my son (in his twenties) wanting to get more seriously into poetry and asking me to recommend some poems. Where to begin? So this is primarily for him, but I hope other readers might enjoy it too.

Robert Louis Stevenson

To My Mother

You too, my mother, read my rhymes 
For love of unforgotten times, 
And you may chance to hear once more 
The little feet along the floor. 


From 'A Child's Garden of Verses'.

Quoted by Anon artist in her latest paper sculpture gifted to the Scottish Poetry Library.
