Lizzie Prudence
Lizzie Prudence moved to Bridgnorth from North Norfolk in 2012 and soon joined the group.
She writes short pieces of fiction, some poetry but mostly haiku, after being inspired by David Bingham. Lizzie has set haiku for voice, performing with Greenwood Haiku at the International Haiku Conference in St. Albans in 2019, and is a regular speaker at poetry events in The Midlands.
Lizzie never leaves home without a notebook.
For Hillary November 2016
A woman, drained
by tiredness of talking
bruised from an onslaught of lies,
comes to the end of the day.
She fingers her hairbrush
then fluffs out her hair.
She washes her face clean
removing the mask
revealing the strain.
She carefully unbuttons
her cornflower blue suit,
gives it a shake then hangs it to air
along with her dream.
