I find your videos very soothing, a moment of peace in a wild world. I cant say how happy I am to know that people like you still exist in our world. Much love and peace from Alaska, where I can assure everyone that masses of salmon are most certainly from the hand of God.
It’s hard to overstate how magical this channel is. What a treasure. I’d almost forgotten the power of words.
"Be still and know that I am God..." is what came to mind as I listened to your reading. Thank you for sharing.
i always feel so comforted watch ur videos 💜 ty!
I want to sincerely thank you sir. I deal with severe anxiety disorder, among other things which are not important, and your tone of voice, apparently sincere love for life, and your poetry help me cope in ways I cannot express. Thank you, thank you, and again, thank you. May God always bless and protect you and what you love. God is good. Fearing fear is only another trap for a panic attack!
When it's all said and done, I have to come back to you, Dear Sir, to center myself and find peace again. Peace be with you. On a side note, I know your time is valuable, but I BEG you, make more videos, more frequently. please. Give us more stories of Gallahad. :)
OH, and Just FYI, I'm not nearly as intelligent as most people make me out to be! LOL :D
Trust me, good sir, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have chosen the life I chose to live. Most people wouldn't! LOL :D
" We must always not only preserve, but positively celebrate the arts of peace, all the more so on the precipice of war, all the more to do the things that are intrinsically worthwhile and not to capitulate to sort of nerves or fear." Well put!
thanks!
Thank you for this video! A point of possible interest: Ted's first book with photos was Remains of Elmet, which came out a few years before River. It was done in a slightly smaller format.
Thank you, Malcolm.

I swear I GOT A LOVELY WHIFF OF PIPE SMOKE as I began listening. So enjoy your videos and readings. This reading of Ted Hughes poems is perfect for this Earth Day. thanks to Matin Shaw for introducing you to me thru Martin’s THE HOUSE OF BEASTS AND VINES podcasts.
Thanks Charlette Martin is a wonderful man, I'm glad you've found me through him
Thank you for this.
My pleasure!
I loved this! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Arrived here after looking for a reading of The Smile and stayed here because of the equivocal triad of beard , pipe and the bookshelves . Fresh air within the stale suffocation of the RUclips algorithm.
thanks
Malcolm could make a phone book sound enchanting!
One of your best ones so far! Brilliant! Blessings from Norway
Outstanding...
I have just discovered your channel As a poetry lover I look forward to watching your videos. So far I have enjoyed your thoughts on Dylan Thomas and as a Scot the one on Burns.Cheers.

i can old hope one day i'm like you, and as successful as you...especially with a room full of books and pipes like that...id love to more more about where i should start for getting into poetry also id love to know more about your pipe smoking...how you pack a bowl and what you smoke! all the best Malcolm, god bless!

Dark spirits surrounded that man and his family. Tragedy after tragedy.
and yet amidst the tragedy he produced such beautiful work
Did you ever read the writings of Eugene Peterson? He was an American pastor and often spoke of the apocalyptic poet.
yes he's excellent and I have had the pleasure of meeting and talking with him
Thank you
Hope you are well Fr Malcolm. Have missed your online posts.
Best wishes
Thankyou my friend ♥️
I know that feeling… after five or six days moored in the middle of nowhere, I sense it’s over and time to be among people again. I move the boat to a village, visit the church then go into the pub; cautiously, carefully tiptoeing into Society once again. I’m aware my throat is tight when I order my drink, because I haven’t spoken in dozens of hours. It sounds strange to me, and it sounds slightly like regret - because IT is over, once again, for a while. I can’t stay in the middle of nowhere for too long, and I can’t go there when I’m not ready. The most powerful sensation is the regret. But the solace is that, in time, I’ll be able to “go fishing” again, when I’m ready.
