Alice Bennett
I’ve been writing poems since I was a little girl. When I look back at them I sometimes think those poems were the best I’ve ever written! Thanks to the wonderful support of the Arts Office and the vibrant writing community in Kilkenny, my poems have found an audience. I hope you enjoy this one.
