              | Having an Osprey about the House |  
              | Sudden beauties observed: the diverse but shared troubles of our lives, the strangeness and quaintness of things, expressed in a language voiced so that we notice anew, recognise an affinity and can laugh - or cry. Who after all hasn't had an Osprey about the house? This is poetry for all who can read and love which leaves a lingering afterglow. The hauntings of childhood are particularly poignant. (Joan Jackson - bwl 8 April 2001)
