Autumn and winter bring can bring people down
The rain turns smiles into frowns
But see the positives in the change
The colours and the vibrancy it can range
Autumn brings falling leaves and fireworks
Barbeques and fires we all warm around in thick shirts
Sitting in pubs with friends and those we love
Roasting marshmallows in our thick gloves
Lights flicker in homes everywhere
A warm feeling hits me there
For to me it shows cosy and warm
People wrapped up away from the storm
The winter brings much the same
Even the snow from whence it came
Can bring a smile to faces young
Stories told, songs are sung
So don’t feel down in the darker months
Embrace them for what they offer this once
You’ll see a different side to these times
Then feel your heart soar and it climbs

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...''
