There is a musical quality to these poems, a delicacy that overlays real depth. The imagery is precise, original and striking, but never forced. The voice is contemplative but accessible.

This is poetry to savour, slowly, and to return to.Patricia Helen Wooldridge lives in Hampshire and is inspired by walking, bird watching and working on her allotment.
