Killybegs. County Donegal. Republic of Ireland Picture courtesy of mikelbilbao.photoshelter.com I heard today how change
sadly has come
Under a golden harbour
sun
That much has been
lost, sold away
Whilst some have been
left to decay
Winter comes to close
the summer season
Along with shops and
bars with sad reason
The town now full
of wraiths
No-one out now

Price wars and a
Changing world
Only help the corporate
monsters to buy and sell
Leaving behind ghosts
from the past
As we looks back,
eyes sadly cast
Oh for times of
old
When life was tough
but stories were told
Now all is swallowed
away
By those in power
with lives they play
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...''
