#Christmas #Advent #Poetry Day 3. Today I have chosen a poem that embodies the bitter cold of a December night. The descriptions of #nature and #wildlife from Laurie Lee, a local hero where I live, are very moving. Consider reading more of #LaurieLee poetry and maybe gifting it this Christmas

Laurie Lee – Cider with Rosie (1959). Beautifully written account of traditional Cotswolds village life circa World War I. Lyrical and witty, Lee captures a lost world. I’d have preferred an overarching narrative, as some episodes seem disjointed, but other passages are riveting. #LaurieLee

I felt it was for this I had come: to wake at dawn on a hillside and look out on a world for which I had no words, to start at the beginning, speechless and without plan, in a place that still had no memories for me...
