For me, this poem by @PoetryZone sums up Roger’s brilliant wit and wordplay. It’s from his verse novel for teenagers, ‘The Journal of Danny Chaucer’. Well worth tracking down a copy if you can find one.

Enjoying rereading ‘A Sentience of Sycamores’ by @poetryzone - his grown-up #poetry collection. Here’s ’The Naming of Stones in California’ which makes me smile.
