Stirling in Scotland taken by the author Darren Greenidge The flame ignited by passions
dream
By what has been recently
seen
Mountains, rivers, waterfalls
galore
And the sea spreading far, I
yearn for more
Yet the bait been set and trap’s
laid fresh
To cull those dream’s before
I draw breath
As options arise in sneaky
guise
Filling the mind with deceit
and lies
And then comes back the
castle and fields
The views unspoilt as I
raise my shield
Another crossroads I’ll
yet cross
And wonder if there’ll
be a cost?
For voices from the past
lay their dissent
Bringing up old ghosts long
laid to rest
The bitterness still tastes
in the mouth
Of past shadows that
haunt this house
But faith still in the
dream
Born of fire from all
that’s been
Seven broken years in
the wait
As the dreams of fire ready in
silence to bolt the gate
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...''
