Two tyrants killed in the same year
Separated by months, the locals do cheer
The middle east will now change much
For good or bad, peace should be given more than a nudge
One fell to American hands controversially
Shot with no proof of his body, burned hurriedly
A vacuum in Iraq whilst stragglers fight on
Now in Libya although they sing a different song
Lets hope that all will be well and all are safe
Enough of the bloodshed and all the hate
It’s time to live in a world of peace
That would benefit all, no palms to grease
But you just know that it will be hard
When politicians get involved and play their cards
For they control all that we see
Some of those people will never be free
Proof will be needed for the world to see
As so many have died for their freedom that can be
I hope that they don’t make the mistakes of before
It’s for others to decide on their countries law..

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...''
