Eiffel Tower in Remembrance motif Picture credit: @jean_jullien on Twitter Paris, the city of light
and enlightenment
The city of love and art
Oh how we weep for the lost
Those taken from the light
Ripped from it in a
horrendous way
Peace and light over
murderous hate
The people won’t bow down
to monsters!
All stand as one
All stand together
Against the cowardly shadows
But Paris is strong
The people defiant
They shall not be subdued!
Solidarity together
and the world over
They shall not be moved!
Vive la France!
The Fallen shall not
be forgotten
Whilst their killers
shall be dust in the wind
of time
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...''
