So many knock-backs
Offers declined
Fighting a losing battle
Words hurled unkind
But you carry on
As you always will
For it is better to
Dream than fade away still
Never give up
Fight always
Because you’ll get
There one beautiful day

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...''

Can relate to this poem and well written. Thanks for the read.
Thank you very much. It just popped into my head so I typed it straight away. Glad you like it.
Indeed! I totally agree with this. A wonderfully hopeful write!
Bless you, thank you. We have to live and hope don’t we otherwise what’s the point? We’ll get there, just have to keep that belief.
