We want to hear from everyone but most of all we want to hear
Chesham in its own words.
The Rope
The Rope is a new collection of poetry available from Amazon. It is published by Inherit the Earth and all of the proceeds go to the homeless.
Poetry
The night quiets the hill and I sigh my song knowing only I will hear it and even I don't listen all the time. When the night is over we will not gather up all the night sighs, we will sing morning songs to the sun rise and the night songs will echo in the dark and sing in our dreams.
