I am a 65 year old Irishman, living in England,now retired. I have a degree in English/Religious Studies, which I obtained in 1989 as a mature student. I have always loved words and am an avid reader, especially of poetry. I have a strong interest in history, Irish history in particular, and among my other interests are theatre, films and playing snooker.
My poetry "style" is pretty eclectic, I will try almost anything, but I favour strong lyrical poems.I write both rhyming poems and free verse ( sometimes I fuse the two).
I like contemporary poetry, but I also have a healthy respect for the classics.

My Poetry
-
Each night I search inside my dreams for you,
and wander mental corridors in vain; -
Sometimes I think there is a plan
ordained by God for mouse and man, -
There is sorrow
and there are degrees
