This one is a little loose people, so get ready!
Reason being: The sun was shining and we enjoyed a few garggles before going into the world of poetry this week, so if you fancy grabbing yourself a scoop before you listen, you'd be absolutely so welcome.
Speaking of enjoying yourself, we start the show with the iconic 'stand and stare' line from the poem 'Leisure' by W.H Davies. You have to enjoy yourself people, and the Welsha 'supertramp' makes sure we know it.
Weirdly, pirate life gets a few mentions on today's show. No idea why, but adding to that 'Yo Ho Ho' vibe is the 'The Rime Of The Ancient Mariner' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge (I know, we are bloody cultured on this show, and so are you for listening) and his tale of spooky goings on aboard the ship.
Sean Urell shares his frustration about that one guy that loves using all his words when he could just use one with 'The Overexplainer'. This ones a right giggle so stick around for it.
We were also ever so grateful and thankful for the words of speech writer Alison Mooney who gives us a lovely intro for the show as well as shares her poem 'Europa' as a reminder of how important it is for nations to be on the same page. Such a good poem.
Our Agony Aunt poem this week is to help someone who just doesn't want to be on the dating apps, but wants to find love. We have a little chat about love in the digital world, as we like to do.
We also have a final call for The Poetry's Edit competition which wraps up this week so get over their Instagram and get your poems. Such a great response so far.
Thanks again for all your support, we are always grateful you're here
