I’ve always loved words – as far back as I can remember.
First I learnt to understand them, to feel them, to try and mimmick them.
Once I was able to speak them, I couldn’t stop; they just came flowing out, all the time! something I was reminded of quite often as a child. :o)
When I discovered the joy of reading them, books & I where seldom far apart.
The magic they can conjure in an open mind, the reactions they can cause, the feelings they can evoke and the world they can create;
are things that have always attracted me to their mystery…
I have recently started to write them down. Thoughts, feelings, memories, observations…..; really anything that comes out when when my itchy right hand puts pen to paper. (yes, I like to handwrite)
I am always so inspired by some of the amazing writing & visually artistic talent here on RedBubble; it has helped spur on something in me.
Thanks for reading what I’ve written; I hope it means something to you too.
Oh… feel free to leave any comments you want to make, I love to read them

I clung to your thought / like whiskey drops on a crystal glass / knowing this moment / would be gone as quick as night-time comes. Watching inch by inch / tracing lines along each severed curve …
