Walking through the woods With a hand poised to grasp Pulling all the green off all the trees Storing in palms for later For when the fresh air has been left behind Where the walls are up, doors locked, windows shut Where the taps have been left on And the water is rising, not just like the tide Ankle deep, making its way to calf level We will sink like stones Joining the ghosts at the bottom While the water keeps flowing Only the green will float Ghosts of the Water is Elizabeth Lockwood's third book of poetry and illustrations.

Autorenporträt
Elizabeth Lockwood was born in a small town in South Wales, but grew up all over the place. She spent most of her childhood reading or trying to be the funny one. She gained three English degrees at different universities and tried (but mostly failed at) several types of career. Elizabeth followed a rather manic path to motherhood. After years of infertility, weight loss and marathons, the ups and downs have taken her from heartbreak to happiness and helped her become a more positive person. Her first book, Little Something, is about her fertility journey. Elizabeth lives in Wales with her husband and children. She loves taking part in running events, going for walks, baking cakes, writing, and anything magical. Elizabeth's website can be found at www.elizabethlockwood.co.uk.
