I’m delighted that my poem “This Island is a Stone” has been published in the latest issue of MockingHeart Review. I am grateful to editor Clare Martin for accepting this piece.

This is amazing!

It really does all come down to that love dart not being a metaphor… ever.

Excellent work. I’m curious if you’ve ever sent work to The Birmingham Poetry Review? Seems like you two would be a good fit.
