9/11 💛🌿💛

I wanted to honour all the lives that were lost on this fateful day. I hope these words find someone comfort 💛🌿💛

Towers of Tragedy

On this fateful day lives were sadly lost
With tears and sorrow lines were crossed
We remember the agony that people share
So we show our sympathy and we show we care
The depth of the pain swirls in us all
Heartache stabs our souls we bawl
We bleed with rogue and feel colour of mourning
The towers came down without any warning
There are things we wish we should have said more
We thank those who were brave when the fires roared
We cry with anguish for friends and loved ones
Sharing this grief together our hearts do bond
Dust a sympathetic white the colour of tragedy
Devastation smiles and knocks on happily
Fierce despair silent like ghosts
Drifting with sails like quietened boats
Our loved ones live on through the stories we tell
In our beautiful memories they never fell

As we come to the end of here is a piece I’d like to share with everyone which I’ve called ’Ellipsis’.

Just like everyone’s mental health, it’s a poem with lots of questions, but not always obvious answers. I hope you enjoy it.

Today is a big day for me as it's my birthday but it's also the day I can announce that my second collection of poetry will be published in early 2023.
Thank you to Double Rainbow Publishing for working on it with me. I can't wait for you to see it.

Fields of Peace

Today we mourn the souls of many
For those who do not grow old
The graceful fields grow of plenty
Row on row, their voices we hold
We listen to the shouting silence
In thought the red poppies are lay
We pray for those in violence
We hear what they would say
In the wind that wanders widely
We thank them in our stride
Hold their memories ever tightly
We remember them with pride
The quiet pain is never tranquil
The bloodshed fought to cease
For their courage we are thankful
They now dance in fields of peace

Happy National Poetry Day 2022 🎉🎉🎉

This year the theme 'The Environment'. I just wanted to share with you my poem. I hope you enjoy it!

🌿🌿🌿 Trees Speak 🌿🌿🌿

I only wish to touch sweet water
And venture through the sky
And every dawn the moon is gone
It only makes me cry
I weep till the blue rises
Above the birds black beaks
The sonnet, it moves me
Till the trees so quietly speak
You should be enough
To face the worlds foul sting
As the winter fades away
Sore the sky upon feathered wing
Beauty lurks in heaven and sea
The earth this magnificent place
As I close my eyes to feel
The winters warm embrace

I've just spent a week away at one of my favourite places for writing my poetry - Fron farm yurt retreat. I'm lucky enough to have made friends for life with the family that call it their home.

I arrived home to these beautiful gifts from Dave Puddy. He has given me lots of advice and time over recent years during my stay. I am very grateful for his words of wisdom and kindness.

I look forward to my next visit 💛🌿💛

Last night I performed at my first poetry gig. I was so unbelievably nervous, but I had the BEST time!

We raised money for School in a Bag which supports children learning in the Ukraine.

I was lucky enough to perform along side my very talented mentor Paul Jenkins - Poet and also the awesome and Inspiring Dominic Berry who was resident poet at Glastonbury amongst many other achievements. I also loved Genevieve Walsh's set she was incredible. I had the most fun and I hope to meet them all again soon. Thank you so much for all the positive feedback!

Huge thank you to the Wonder woman Melanie Kemp for being the best supporter of mine 🌈🌈💛
