Strawberries
A moodboard created for @the-slumberparty "May Challenge."
It was a "free-for-all." So, I decided to include a poem by the Scottish poet Edwin Morgan "Strawberries." Also read by Tom Hiddleston himself. Read the poem while you listen. 🤗🥰

"Strawberries" by Edwin Morgan ‖ Tom Hiddleston (12/03) [without music]
This is a re-upload of Tom reading poetry for Ximalaya FM from 2019 without the background music.
"Strawberries" by Edwin Morgan
There were never strawberries
like the ones we had
that sultry afternoon
sitting on the step
of the open french window
facing each other
your knees held in mine
the blue plates in our laps
the strawberries glistening
in the hot sunlight
we dipped them in sugar
looking at each other
not hurrying the feast
for one to come
the empty plates
laid on the stone together
with the two forks crossed
and I bent towards you
sweet in that air
in my arms
abandoned like a child
from your eager mouth
the taste of strawberries
in my memory
lean back again
let me love you
let the sun beat
on our forgetfulness
one hour of all
the heat intense
and summer lightning
on the Kilpatrick hills
let the storm wash the plates.

I don't know Edwin Morgan, but I love him.
(Apologies to those using screenreaders. The poem is intended to be unpronounceable by people who are not the Loch Ness monster.)

Pilate at Fortingall
Edwin Morgan
First published in Sonnets From Scotland (Mariscat, 1984)
The “legend” that Pontius Pilate was born in Fortingall, in Perthshire (more than a little ridiculous, since the Roman Empire wouldn’t begin to intrude into Scotland until 71 CE) seems to have begun in the late nineteenth century, not long after Sir Donald Currie, a shipping magnate, bought the Glenlyon estate in 1885. Currie was a patron to writers such as Kipling and Tennyson, and he may have invented the story as a prank with the help of his literary friends. Nevertheless, the tall tale did inspire Edwin Morgan to write “Pilate at Fortingall”, one of his Sonnets from Scotland.
You can listen to Edwin Morgan read “Pilate at Fortingall”, along with other poems and recordings, here:
