Originally from the UK, I began writing as a way to reflect on the people and places that shaped me. Now living in New Zealand, I continue to find inspiration in new landscapes and the stories they hold. My poetry blends observation with emotion, often exploring nature, memory, and quiet moments of reflection.
You see me on the street
A man so plain you will never meet
He that seems so quiet and reserved.
Yet love never found him, love that he deserved.
...
Your beauty is like a summer rain
And a breath of fresh air you bring to my sight.
Bringing life to those that have withered and refrained.
And an image so haunting it stays in my mind throughout the night.
...
She lives so far away,
On a shore where a different ocean sprays
An island so different from this land
Yet more enticing for me to leave and make a stand
...
Love left me in an email
The noise of new mail ringing like a bell
Its from her, I see the name I know so well
Is it a invite to chat or a jpeg to see
...
Through dark streets I ride
where cones of amber intersect the dark
In the distance dogs bark
And in gardens hedgehogs hide
...
