Welcome!

For many years I have written poetry and prose and I would like to use this site as a platform upon which to share these ramblings. It also means I can keep all my writing in the one place, although I don’t ever see me getting rid of all the pieces of paper which seem to float around. Sometimes I will reach into the pocket of a jacket I haven’t worn for ages and deep inside there will be some scribbling, usually in the most illegible handwriting, which details some moment of thought from a time long forgotten. These are my memories scattered in the various pockets, drawers, bags and notebooks of my life that I will now find a place for here.

I like it when I find a place for things because it is a rarity in my life

I would like this to not only be a place for my writing but a place for myself and for others, should they so choose, to be moved or enriched or made thoughtful or however they might feel when reading. It is a place, where for the first time, I will be truly expressive in sharing something of myself with the most brutal honesty. Which is something that I think poetry in particular is about. I’ll probably add some prose and the odd random thought or opinion, alongside photographs or exerts of other writers I find interesting or inspiring and possibly some media too. Who knows..read along and find out!

All eyes welcome! Everybody here wants you!

Where ‘it’ can be found…

It’s in the small moments of thoughtfulness. It’s in the constant burning desire and that never ending willingness to please. It’s in every smile and gesture. It’s in all the moments apart when you want to be together. It’s in every second that you are reminded of them and in need of them. It’s in the excitement and the way you look forward and you feature them in all of your plans. It’s in the way you take their hand as if you were holding their heart and soul. It’s in every moment of joy and laughter. It’s in your willingness to give and share. It’s in every effort that for you is effortless. It’s in the longing and the anticipation. It’s in the child-like thrill that makes it all worthwhile. It’s in all the consideration and the overwhelming need to protect it at all costs. It’s in your heart and it’s in what drives you forward. It’s in your day and night. It’s in your dreams. It’s in the way you need to put them first. It’s in the way you think and the way you see the world. It’s in the way you have been changed. It’s in the way you have been moved. It’s in your values.  It’s in you and it lives and burns and it is immovable, unshakable and worth more than anything else in the world. It is to be valued, shared and expressed at all costs. It is what you live for. It is love.
