……….somewhere between heaven and earth is me………………
The photograph that led me here is in my portfolio as……….somewhere between heaven and earth is me………………
Just In case you forgot or just didn’t see / What about that old spectre …
Before my Nanny (Gorgina) Borroff completely lost her ability to speak because of vascular dementia. She fought hard to get across her meaning. It has been heartbreaking trying to try to pick up on what she wanted to say with seemingly random words with desperation. somtimes it felt like if I looked hard enough her efforts felt profound. / strangely after a poetry workshop at her day centre everything she said from that point was then carried with a poetic rythm. similar to the rythm I fell into writing this. I hope I have passed on the meaning I found in her, all of my family and friends and the places I love. This is my first attempt at poetry so please bare with me. Just really had to get something off my chest. You may have noticed that it’s changed a little bit since it first went up but I think I’m done now. I dare you to google an Oil Beetle, it’s not for the faint hearted.

Each Who Sings Now? poem I have written is inspired by a Teacher found in Nature; a tree, star, animal, stone, etc. from which we can learn so many priceless lessons… if we only take the time to listen. Many people enjoy trying to guess which Teacher inspired the poem before going on to read about them in detail. Can you guess who is singing? I chose to share this Teacher today in response to a post by, and ongoing conversation with a new friend for me here at Redbubble… Wayne Cook, this one’s for you today. http://www.redbubble.com/people/waynocook/writing/3807237-transcendency-and-spirituality
I stand like a Tree surrounded by City. / Harsh, cold concrete binds my roots! / I shift uneasily in this unwelcoming ground…
This poem reflects my deep connection to my oldest mentors, the Trees, even at my worst point in life. This was written during a time when only expression through poetry, and their quiet wisdom, could save me.
