Alan Roderick
He says of this poem:
My book AFTER YOU’D GONE is mainly composed of poems written after the death of my wife BOŽENA to LESLEY JAMES. (Božena died of lymphoma in the late hours of Christmas Eve at the Royal Gwent Hospital in Newport.)
#NotAdvent Day Twenty-five. Enjoy poetry by Alan Roderick. For December go against the flow with me, instead of an Advent Calendar I am having an online Disappearance poetry calendar. Thinking of Extinction events, disappearing wildlife, disappearing homes due to war, thinking of the missing during Christmas. Twenty-fifth Day.
