The idea that we come across very similar events in life, time and time again is not new. One's life-spiral forever grows and extends out into the world and universe. My Words for Living evolved whilst I contemplated life in 2020, a year of restriction and forfeits but most importantly, for me, personal growth, acceptance and appreciation. A volume of poetry is like a set of short stories, each a separate entity, a different tale, mood and energy. Like a box of chocolates, you may find one or two are your favourites but I invite you to give them all a try. Perhaps you could allow My Words for Living into your mind and feel them in your heart.
Remember, my good friends, a volume of poetry is like a set of short stories, each a separate entity, with a different tale, mood and energy. Like a box of chocolates, you may find one or two are your favourites but I invite you to give them all a try, perhaps allowing “Travel Safely Within' feeling them in your heart.
Since my other books, “My Words for Living” and “Travel Safely Within” were published, words have continued to arrive; via pen, pencil, keyboard and dreams, never really stopping. A steady stream of ideas have washed into my consciousness, waiting to be written down and shared. My inspiration continues to be from many sources. This collection is a genuine mix of topics, emotional responses and calls to action. Each poem has a story within its form, of which there are new variants as I continue to experiment and develop as a poet. I have been very fortunate in making new contacts and enjoyed many memorable poetry opportunities. As the reader, please try the words out loud, to help interpret them in your own way. Look for the beginning, middle and end to each story. The meanings might change along with your energy levels and mood but I trust you will find some new favourites amongst “Words on Stony Ground”; poems inspired by life, loss & love.
