The small boy no more than three
Plays with his soldiers before his tea
He pretends to shoot the bad guy
As his goodies bide their time and hide
Bored is he after half an hour
He decides to play wizards with his tower
The dragons fight against the wizard
the boy makes a sound just like a blizzard
His dad calls out it’s time for tea
His crackers and cheese he likes to eat
Like Wallace and Gromit he also loves
Down his throat his food does he shove
Then back to play in the garden does he
With his sword and shield, a warrior he be
He swishes his sword this way and that
Awakens and scares his little cat
Suddenly he feels tired so he grabs his bear
This child’s favourite toy he does care
Battered and bruised, stuffing falling out
And one ear missing, he cuddles his bear proud

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...''
