He thinks back on the past year
Now he sees with eyes so clear
Why didn’t he just do as he wished
Instead of staying like a trapped fish?
But he stayed put to clear his head
To better himself from being brain-dead
That he did and improved himself
Now hungry for more, new stories to tell
So away he needs to be he knows
If he’s ever gonna grow
Too long now staying still
He knows he’s a fight to get real
But he stayed put to clear his head
To better himself from being brain-dead
That he did and improved himself
Now hungry for more, new stories to tell
So everything else will be put to one side
Education and relocation heavy on his mind
To start again with a fresh outlook
A new page to turn in his life’s book

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...''
