Profile
I have written poetry since I was 14 which was a long time ago. I have seen a lot & done a lot in the fields of health, emergency & disaster planning & response as well as administration, education & research- I enjoy life.
I am the repository of a great many stories, some I will carry to my grave & many I will share to honour those who shared them with me.
I hope I make a positive contribution

Just say it

Goodbye & farewell
My dreams are full of tooth & claw / A night of sleep’s a gaping maw / Morpheus’s touch is no soft embrace / Terror lurks within that place
Melding
I sit beside my life’s love thinking / Her warmth & humour I am drinking / Passions there without lust or burning / Delight in our world’s gentle turning
Lighthouse
Lighthouse, lighthouse burning bright / Hopeful guide in darkest night / Stands upon a darkened peril / To guide away from danger, feral / Peaceful depths & waters blue / Have no need or use for y…
Fight or Die
In those days of myth & magic / True life was short & hard & tragic / The only chance at life so long / Was in a tale or epic song
