Guido Fawkes' Demise

The Scaffold.  by Andrea PhillipsGuilty. Hang, Draw and Quarter him.                Her new boots pinched her feet, so it was hard to stand on tip toe for long: the crowd pushed around her. She touched the rough yellowish wool of the jerkin in front of her: a fairly tall man smelling of leather, a pewter spoon stuck into his knitted hat. She leaned left to look over his shoulder and could just see the gibbet arm. She felt for the secret pocket in her bodice, pressing the rosary beads into her…See More

'Into Spring' by Andrea Phillips after John Keats

Season of chill breezes and blue skies, When the young sun shines its clear bright rays; Striving to warm the shadows of last winter’s chill And call again to rouse the sleeping daffodil; To swell buds and explode pale young leaves, Open petals, release scents, for eager bees. Bursts of blossom bedeck the cherry trees, Where blue tits dart, and swoop, loop, chase and play; Busy redbreasts hop by with beaks of grubs To feed their hungry nestlings through the day. Time’s stepped forward; we…See More

'Kettle Song' by Petal The Kettle

           Kettle Song    by Petal the Kettle There’s something I must ask you If you could be so kind It’s something that is weighing Quite heavy on my mind. It’s something that is simple And an easy thing to do I really hope you’ll listen As I ask it of you. When you want a cup of coffee And you only want one cup When you’re filling me with water Please don’t fill me right up. It’s not the extra work load I work as hard as Janet It’s to save some electricity Public money, and the planet. So I…See More

I would like...... Writers' Group Exercise

I Would Like..... by Andie Phillips I would like to delve into the wet leaves,feel their wetness,slippery rounded oak leaves,immerse my senses in the smell,musty and sharp. I would like to enter the wave as it rolls and crashes,salty stinging,stopped breath,flashing foam bubbling. I would like to crawl into the earth,crumbling mulch,meeting worms, centipedes,becoming tiny into their world of rocksboulders, broken twigs, melting damp leaves. I would like to climb that tree and sit there,for…See More

I Don't Believe In Ghosts But .......

I Don’t Believe In Ghosts, But…. By Andie PhillipsI don’t believe in ghosts, but….. when I left college, joined a nascent community theatre group, we rehearsed our first play, ‘The Soldier’s Tale’, on Dartmoor. All the latest acting techniques: warm ups, character backgrounds, motivations, improvised inter-actions, and we were camping out in the open air for a couple of weeks.There were two young men I had known at college, who feature in this story. Both sort of boyfriends. Mark had been Pat’s…See More

Bursts of blossom bedeck the cherry trees,

Where blue tits dart, and swoop, loop, chase and play;
