Description
Digital download: A quirky conversation between two friends through a series of poems – ostensibly about a boat but actually much more. There are questions, disagreements, laughter, play, mutual respect and an opening up to each other’s spirituality.

In addition to being poets, and friends, Jan and Joy are both members of the Iona Community.
