About this ebook

This compilation includes an extract from a group of poems written for a master's degree. Originally, there were 55,000 words. The scenario was a village and various characters in it interlinking with some modern issues such as organic farming, and each other.

I have interwoven other poems which link in to the subject. I hope you will enjoy meeting some of my village personalities!
