Mathias published in the Lothlorien Poetry Journal

Posted on 2023-05-15 by Bartholomew Barker

I’m proud to announce that a new poem of mine, Mathias, has been published in the Lothlorien Poetry Journal. It’s a sonnet about a girl and her horse. I hope you’ll give it a read.

My gratitude to Strider Marcus Jones for accepting this work and choosing the above art to accompany it.
