My favourite poem is called 'Take me home'. I absolutely love it! The media could not be loaded. Some of the poems are accompanied by a lovely picture too from the artist Naomi Hands-Smith.

If you only buy one book of poetry this year I would suggest you buy this one, and I look forward to the hardback version which I believe will be available soon. I received my book today. This book is a wonderful tribute to Queen Elizabeth 2nd. Joanne Boyle has a true gift, her words bring real emotions, sometimes a teary eye and sometimes a smile.
