Seamus Heaney Centre Summer School

Travelling back from this amazing week at Queens University, Belfast, I’m inspired by people and places – I have initiated conversations about poetry and said I’ll write people poems and astonishingly the offer has been received like a gift.

The first one I’ve already posted and the second one is on the way for the kind father in the pink checked shirt on the bumpy flight back to Manchester.

Thank you to fellow students and the astonishing staff for a life-changing experience . I nearly put put poetry-changing but I think that follows.
