So alone she is today
So alone her heart breaks
So alone this Christmas eve
So alone, no belief
No friends to with play
No family for this day
No parties to be had
No presents, this day sad
The day she wakes alone
The bells across do flow
The noise signs of life
The people maybe someone to confide
Alone she will stay today
Alone she believes is her fate
Alone she eats her turkey treat
Alone she will end her day in sleep
Feel a thought for those alone
Feel for those who alone roam
Feel for those with no-one there
Feel for those that no-one cares

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...''
