Poetry Readings
I had a lot of fun with these, though they aren’t the greatest readings or quality, I suppose you have to start somewhere. Hopefully, I’ll get better as I go along. Hope you enjoy them.

Oh Sarah … thank you! It’s like going to poetry reading! Make it a regular feature? Maybe a once-a-week (or month) where you pick your favorite and read it? So nice to hear, it adds to the words, like seasoning to a sauce. Thank you!

well you’re quite welcome gerry, i’m glad you enjoyed them. yes, i will be adding more as i learn more about the process. i’m not completely happy with the quality but i have friend who is a musician who may be able to teach me a few audio tricks for better tonal quality. that being said, it’s fun actually to read my own words to my readers. i really like it.

Your wonderful voice gave the piece ‘Chubby Girl’ a totally new dimension in my eyes.

Wow, how cool is that. I think you did a great job. I loved ‘Two Women’. So awesome. Guess I’ve missed a lot.

hi you! lol - yes, i suppose they aren’t bad for a first attempt - trying to learn the software and not rush through the readings - though they sound very different online than they do from my computer which is puzzling. you’ve missed little. it will be easy for you to catch up. so good to see you here.
hugs

What a beautiful voice.
I’ve just listen to Two Women and was secertly smiling all the way through it. The words so beautifuly put together touched my heart and the voice - how it spoke the words touched my heart to.
I’m with c here. I wanna be gay with this voice and these words. Hehe!! It’s such a soothing voice.
Thank you sweet Sarah Flannigan

hello again, di - thank you for coming back and listening to the pods. oh my, i’m not sure how to take the vows of turning gay but thank you and i’m blushing.
thanks for listening, dear di.
sarah
OH NO!!
I’ve got to come right back to this right NOW. I’ve just listenig to Talking to myself. It’s smells of love,love,love,love and more love. I love it.
Sarah I love your voice. It’s crystal clear and you read beautifuly. You sound like some-one but I don’t know who. You sound American.
All my friends loved my poem Sarah, they adored how you painted my picture with your magical words about me. Thank -you once again from my heart for the beauty.
aw ! Thank you with love
Di.
hello di, i don’t object in the least to your return. talking to myself was about love and how we deny it to ourselves. i’m glad you found something in it for yourself. i wonder who i sound like - i am american, so that makes sense.
well, i’ll tell you what di, i shall do a pod of your poem and then you can download it to your computer if you like. how about that?
have a wonderful day, di and thank you for all your sweet words.
sarah
This is so special - Thank you for this dear Sarah. I think your voice is a voice I have imagined, it’s a warm voice, you speak your poem for me with tounges of love. I can hear the love in your voice.
Oh !!
I’m so touched. I can’t wait for a friend to call to listen to your voice speaking your words for me.
Yes ! Your voice is American Ha! Not hard to say that your American to. I quess your voice comes with you doesn’t,where ever you go.
Do American people have different accents like us English poeple do ? Our accents differ so much in England.
Your voice is yes extremely soothing and kind and I’m blushing to. Smiling. I don’t know how to download this. I’ll try to think what to do. I’ll have a look.
Loving you, your words and your voice Sarah, so touched.
Di.
Have a lovely rest.
it was no trouble, di and i was happy to do it. i also emailed it to you, so you should just be able to click on the attachment and save it to you desktop. but in case you don’t know how to do that - go to the podcast page, put your cursor over the link, right click and look down the drop down menu and ’save link as’ is an option. click on that, then click on save. okay, dear?
love
sarah
I like the sweet broken-lyrical feel of this poem.

It the first time I have listened to poetry on a Podcast like this. It is much better than reading it.
Well done!!
hello again, nick,
i found the pods to be a challenge, i’m still not happy with the readings - but i agree it is a different experience to hear the writer connect with their own words and speak them - i enjoy listening to pods as well - i think it gives the reader an additional element to the work. thanks for listening.

Hi sarah,

Love
Di

it’s funny what we do when we’re kids, isn’t it? always happy to read for you dear, any requests, just let me know.
love
sarah
Sarah, I just listened to Where I’m from, Chubby Girl and Word Play again for the first time in a very long time. And I have remembered deeply why I first fell in love with your writing.
hello wayne,
it’s funny - i’ve thought of doing more podcasts but i never seem to get to it. i’m flattered by your kind words. thank you. and as always, thanks for reading.
