About Me

About me

Hello, just a poet who no doubt has a lot to learn. Been writing poetry since I was 16, I also write songs and tinker on my guitar. I Found writing better than counselling. For me poetry has been a tool, to help me through life’s struggles. I work in Ocupational Therapy and I am a trustee for a charity. Helping widowed people in financial crises. Something very important to me as I have been that widow. I love my son and my dog. Life is about giving and being there for others. I get a lot of rewards from my life now. I hope I learn much from here and many thanks for taking an interest and reading about me. All the best

Favorite Poets

I guess my most favourite is the poet that encouraged me to write. Mr Poe himself. He was a poet stricken with grief and someone I could relate to. I use to read him to death. Since then I have read others such as Emily Dickinson and Shelley

to name a couple. But I also get a lot of joy from reading others who write within communities. Poets tend to take us on a journey

I find it insightful when I read others works
