Episode one: Introduction + The Waves
In this episode you’ll find a little introduction to me, Charley Barnes, and what I’m planning on doing with this tiny podcast - which is sharing poetry. I’m Worcestershire Poet Laureate for the next 12 months and I want to be able to share my writing as I go along, and I thought this would be a good place to do just that! In this first episode you can hear my poem, The Waves, and I really hope that you enjoy it.
