My poem “Nelly” has been posted today at Autumn Sky Poetry Daily.
It’s a poem about my Grandmother – my Nan – her funeral, and my imagining her as a young woman leaving the place where she was born and grew up to start a new life. If you’ve visited my “About” page, you’ll already be acquainted with her and with the origins of the title of this blog.
My thanks go out to Autumn Sky Poetry Daily editor, Christine Klocek-Lim, for choosing to publish the poem.

I read your poem this morning, Robert, and especially loved that you were an unopened parcel of memories when she was young. So many lovely images. Autumn Sky is one of my favorite venues. Congrats!
