As I recited poems
for the YouTube channel
my sister suggested I smile
as I deliver the words.
It would come through
in my voice.
As an accomplished actress
she knows a thing or two.
She knows what I
try to hide. For instance
when I am glum —
in Welsh ‘digalon’.
So I am remembering
to smile again
and not be too
caught up in it.
