Rooftops, horses in field, new book

From the dentist's waiting room in the centre of Sevenoaks there is an enchanting view of old rooftops, with their gutters, varied slopes and angles, chimney pots and bird traffic.

The way horses arrange themselves in a field; they manage to achieve a perfect composition regardless of where you view them from.

The smell of a new, hardback book when it is opened for the first time.

Vanessa always remarks upon the smell of new books - which she experiences as a way of predicting the pleasure she will get from reading them.
She has also enjoyed reading your poems on the web.
