Garfield Taylor brings us a beautiful, uplifting selection of nostalgic poems
His poetry in White Horses has been inspired by places that he’s lived in the North of EnglandSet mainly in the north of England, White Horses is a delightful selection of nostalgic poems, bursting with vivid descriptions of everything from the local flora and fauna to the sea, beloved rivers and streams from the author’s youth, humorous takes on the game of cricket, and lighthearted anecdotes in an extravagant style reminiscent of the Romantic poets.
‘I dreamed I saw a white horse
That charged across the sea;
Its mane was streaming in the flow,
Its path was symmetry.’
