This is the first episode of The Bardcast shared with our Irish listeners - welcome! And it features some fascinating verses, both from budding bards and from Sarah de Nordwall her self.

Sarah invites you to send your poems to her on sarah@sarahdenordwall.com.

THE BARDCAST airs live on Radio Maria at 3.15pm on Sundays and a new episode comes out every fortnight. Sarah reflects on poems that have been sent in, shares a poem of her own, leaves us with a theme and an inspirational prompt, and sends us off to get writing!
