And the sun goes down ...

... with a glorious burst of colour.

My dear S has received major recognition in the last few weeks. She won first prize in the NZ Poetry Society competition. She has had another poem accepted for publication in an annual anthology, along with three others in her poetry group. And the convenor of a poetry conference in Auckland in November has invited her to read in one session, and be part of a panel discussion in another.

I am filled with admiration, and pleasure that her worth is being recognised.
