The Artist
Autumn's Preparatory Survey High on the Cotswolds
I affix images in my mind,
My mind fine-tunes,
Colours enhanced…
More marked do become
the boundary lines.
If I look at this artistic depiction
of Gloucestershire in my mind’s eye,
by covering my vision
with haze or cloth,
Colours blur
ever so slightly;
I see more naturally.
A Tapestry emerges.
Our artists are the Architects
and Record Keepers of our Planet;
of every Civilization
of the Universe.
A family that spends time
visiting Art Galleries,
as well as fairgrounds,
Amusement parks,
(both so delightful and essential)
Sends down into the ground
the deepest roots,
Strong, Life-Supporting
Ever Sustaining.

Ken Webb is a writer and proofreader. His website, kennwebb.com, showcases his work as a writer, blogger and podcaster, resting on his successive careers as a police officer, progressing to a junior lawyer in succession and trusts as a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives, a retired officer with the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve, and latterly, for three years, the owner and editor of two lifestyle magazines in Liverpool.
He also just handed over a successful two year chairmanship in Gloucestershire with Cheltenham Regency Probus.
Pandemic aside, he spends his time equally between his city, Liverpool, and the county of his birth, Gloucestershire.
In this fast-paced present age, proof-reading is essential. And this skill also occasionally leads to copy-editing writers’ manuscripts for submission to publishers and also student and post graduate dissertations.
