Sinopse

In this very special episode of Encounters with the Good People, we immerse ourselves in great poets whose glorious words have expressed our sense of wonder and fear of the Good People over the ages.From poems which show us Faeries shining, clever, lithe and absolutely free. Living unhindered by the drudgery of our ordinary Human lives. Poems which sweep us away, make us wish to join Them. Show us the path which leads to the land of Faerie.But not all poets shine a light on the path.Some warn us that fear of Good People is not only justified, but wise: there are those who most certainly mean us harm and who are able, and eager, to take our lives. These poems simmer and rumble with the ever-present risk of encountering a Faerie.So, fill your boots and join me as we stroll around the glorious words of WB Yeats, Alice Guerin Crist, John Keats, Lord Dunsany, William Allingham, Dora Sigerson, Rose Fyleman and many more.Featuring very special guest, Storyteller Steve Lally.*Fancy buying me a coffee?If you enjoy Enc
