My poetry seeks clarity, hope and humour.
On some days, a poem is ‘given’ and what a wonderful feeling it is to receive.
That joy grows as I share this precious gift with fellow poets who know what it takes to write poetry that makes us, the poet, happy.
I am an imperfect poet and choose to convey feelings, and the many discoveries of our life’s journey, with clarity rather than over-compliance to form.
My output is, of course, subjective. I love hearing responses to it both sympathetic and contrary, for this is the nature of art.
Thank you for reading, and perhaps commenting, on my work.
Fact exists, truth needs to be believed
My truth is important to me

Wobbly headed, seeing double, slow to react,
Will my head float away if I don’t hold it down?

Your true raiment most refined
Is not made of silk or satin or lace

Spirituality and sexuality are different sides of the same coin
The body is home to both
