What follows is a poem I wrote when I was in love a long, long, long time ago. Like a lifetime ago. And I was in love. But things changed. Life moved on and I grew up. I realised he wasn’t actually a very nice person. So I left. But at the time the poem [...]

So many have been written
We’ve heard them all before
Quaint tales of words quite rhyming
Or emotion a writer insisted to pour
“So what is in this poem?” I say
What topic shall we endure?
Perhaps its time to write a poem
A Poem Like None Before
I step out from behind the crowd
In first person I declare
This poem was meant [...]

Tyne Cot - the poem.
You graves that line this placid place Engulfed by trees and green, Remind me of a time that in reality I have never seen. But studied once with great intense When I was just a lad.I now I stand Grave on grave.The air is thick and sad.An overwhelming sense of grief [...]

We’ve just decided to move and only got a new puppy last week too so I’ve been up to my eyeballs trying to sort out dog insurance as well as sell my property! Crazy I know, but sometimes you can’t time these things. The puppy was supposed to come once we’d moved, but the one [...]

Here’s another song I wrote after i came through a bad patch in my life. Afterwards I realized that, although it’s a cliche, it’s true when they say ‘It’s what’s inside that counts’. All my outer success came when i worked on myself from the inside.
As a society, so much of the time we’re [...]

Keep on Keepin’ on lyrics:
Once there was a man who went fishin’
But fishes wouldn’t come his way
What he was wishin’ for was missin’
So he went on his way
As for the fishes, let me tell ya
Well they had problems of their own
Their fins were tired
They just couldn’t find a way to go home
But God said–
Keep on [...]

Here’s another song. I wrote it for a friend who was going through a hard time. As a middle aged woman she was terrified of getting older. She used to constantly buy anti aging products and was considering spending a small fortune on weight loss surgery as well. I was trying to convince her that [...]

Here’s a song I wrote when going through a painful break up where I had to sell my home with my ex girlfriend. The only thing she let me keep was the coffee machine!
It’s sad but I hope you enjoy it nevertheless. It may ring true with some of you:
They Never Said
I used to [...]

I buy cosmetics online–
And no, I’m not ugly or conceded;
I just think my cellulite is quite unneeded!
That’s right everyone–
I’m not perfect like a model–
I have blotches and a butt that waddles!
But don’t be too surprised–
With the world so vain,
I’m sure Sarah Palin bought a few cosmetics during her campaign!

As I sit down and look at the day
It is as if it could be at bay
Laying down at night
More of it being a flight
The time is coming but it has shades of gray

Not knowing where to fly
Never knowing about what to buy
The inner battle within me
Goes into knowing what am I supposed to be
At [...]
