Welcome to the world little one
Let’s hope it’s filled with fun
And all happy things for you to enjoy
I’m sure you’ll get loads of toys
I wish for you good things all
Someone to pick you up if you fall
That when you grow you’ll be wise and strong
That nothing will ever go wrong
I hope you reach for the stars
Fulfilling your dreams and going far
That nothing for you is out of reach
That when you get there, lessons you’ll teach
Above all I wish you love from my heart
You’re born into a world lost, your start
It’s not your fault so times will be hard
But I’m sure you’ve been dealt amazing cards
So again I welcome you to our world
Floating in space and time in which you’re held
You’re a part of something big
But small also, you’ll learn all the tricks

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...''

As a mother, I can totally relate to this…
Bless you. I’ve just become an Uncle again as well as my friends having their first child, hence the poem.
