This Spring day he contemplates all he sees
wondering in six months where he’ll be
The sun god shines his rays on his brow
Ra the everliving, the life-giver for now
He’s in limbo but wondrously free
to do as he wishes but a prisoner he may be
His own worst enemy, loyal and true
how does he escape this conundrum soon
The mountains and the ocean beckon him free
their sweet call whispers from the sea
But what price freedom does this cost
what will be the most that shall be lost
Is it family or friends that he fears more
is this the root at his innermost core?
Or is it something deeper inside
that he fears more than most from which he hides?
(Chorus)
Fear can be healthy if used in the right way
Fear can be a friend that will show you its face
Fear can also be the enemy you always fight
Fear the nightmare in your sleep, awake at night

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...''
