And then there's the mirror, the anniversary gift . . .

This poetry collection is based on myth, folklore and nature. A collection that covers the twelve months of the year, in some part based on the Anglo-Saxon calendar and a must-read for all those interested in our connections to the past. Allow yourself time to linger over the names of the months...they are worth it.
