Just Words is the fourth collection of poems from poet Heather Goddin.
When you read the poems in this remarkable collection you will find yourself nodding you head, smiling, chuckling, wincing, perhaps, and sometimes you will be in tears.
Because all human and non-human life is to be discovered within.
You'll read of love, of hummingbirds and butterflies, of memories held within a beloved item, a real tearoom, of winter in Cantabria, of legs, old photographs, of flowers and flowers that aren't real flowers, but which will last forever.
There's youth, old age, pathos, humour, and there is my personal favourite, the story of Marmalade.
During these troubled times (of Coronavirus) I think everyone should own a copy of this book. It's published by Matador at £8.99.
