In memory of Ian MacNeill. This was his favourite poem and will be read at his funeral in Sydney...
In particular the line 'behaved perfectly disgraceful at parties' summons up Ian's beautiful joie de vivre, which is a special quality for any human to have.
I described him as 'my ideal reader' when I launched my last book 'The Hungry Heart' and throughout my writing life he was a wonderfully sympathetic ear. Yet I also knew how to read his silences and what he did not say.
Peter.
