Poetry

See

See the clouds the way they change colour
I wanna fly, meld in them and wallow
To be a part of nature’s beauty
Before I’m ended a rabid do, shoot me

See the mountains rising high to the stars
They reach as high as the clouds and Mars
To climb them would be a feat most high
This spirit need a kick start to try

See the sea the way it moves so graceful
Yet like the mountains and clouds, beautiful
The waves lap up at your feet
A happiness and freedom they do greet

See the trees they do sway
In harmony and grace I do say
The leaves to grow and in autumn they fall
In natures beauty they so enthrall

See the wolf in the wild
As one with the earth, natures child
Mothers perfect protectors she does know
Through sun, rain, wind and winters snow

But see the ‘black sheep’ that is man
Who builds, goes to war and so destroys the land
Mother had so much hope for them
But it’s not meant to be for these men

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life. I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones. Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible. My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love. I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
