Monthly poem - November 2018
EURYDICE AND ORPHEUS
I would make the journey down
jumping from stone to stone
on the slippery track
I would find you in that dark palace
crowned with watery stars
I would gather you up
all the bones and the flesh of you
in one slim volume
and never look back

Jehane Markham is a true poet...
her poems glow like impressionist paintings.
Adrian Mitchell
Love wells up out of Jehane Markham's
work... it made me cry.
