Get flash to fully experience Pearltrees
A man said to the universe:
2 Away to the forest trees, 3 Where giant pines and leafless vines 4 Bend 'neath the wandering breeze!
IN days of ancient history Who were you?
Vicki Feaver (b. 1943) grew up in Nottingham "in a house of quarrelling women", an emotional inheritance which finds later expression in her poetry. She studied Music at Durham University and English University College, London and worked as a lecturer in English and Creative Writing at University College, Chichester, becoming Emeritus Professor. Her collections have been highly praised, the second, The Handless Maiden , including both the Arvon International Poetry Competition finalist 'Lily Pond', and 'Judith', winner of the Forward Poetry Prize for Best Single Poem.
