Teacher. Author. Poet. Father. Husband.
Sun sets on the day,
weary bones, yet heart aglow
peace in hard-earned rest.

Whistle pierces air,
Grassroots game, truth on the line,
Shadows blur the rules.

Words soft as the breeze,
Whispers in the stillness bloom,
Silence speaks through verse.

It’s quiet being a poet.

The jet stream flows, a ribbon wide,
High in the sky, where winds collide.
Once steady, swift, its course now strays,
A wavering path through warming days.

The Arctic warms, its chill undone,
A fading battle with the sun.
The contrast weak, the winds grow slow,
Their broken rhythm starts to show.

A Dream of Trump

Last night, I wandered through a restless haze,
A dreamscape forged in flickering malaise.
A gilded tower loomed beneath a blood-red sky,
And there he stood, with that familiar, hollow eye.

Shadows dim the light,
Peaceful streams run red with rage,
Fear consumes the dawn.

Peace and innocence is being replaced by hatred and fear.

Beneath the veil of coloured ties,
A fractured truth in shadow lies.
The masses cling to crafted speech,
Where reason feels too far to reach.

Public figures weave their lore,
Unchecked, their tales infect the core.
What’s real dissolves, what’s false takes root,
Questions fall, their answers mute.

I spent some time on X. Is it worth fighting the right wing propagandists? Or is it not worth my time?

Dreams of viral fame,
Content flows like restless streams,
Patience lights the way.

Dominance fades fast,
Victory slips through our hands,
The score lies, not us.

Cold shadows linger,
Breath clouds in the frozen air—
Warmth remains a dream.

The Real Luxuries in Life

A quiet morning, untouched by haste,
Sunlight spilling through an open windowpane.

Laughter shared, unbidden and free,
The kind that echoes long after it’s gone.

“The Battle of Cape Matapan was a pivotal moment in the war, a chance to strike a decisive blow against the Italian Navy. The stakes were high, and Jamie knew the outcome of this confrontation could shift the balance of power in the Mediterranean.”
My latest book is close to completion.

Fevered cheeks aglow,
whispers break the quiet night -
rest heals weary dreams.

Moments shaped in time,
Laughter fills the passing days,
Memories remains.

Roots anchor the tree,
Guiding hands through storms and calm,
Love’s eternal light.

Family is precious.

Golden rays embrace,
Winter’s chill melts from my soul—
Light renews my strength.

The difference the sun makes to your day

Hands in every task,
Trust erodes with each small grip -
Growth wilts in shadows.

Cold bites through the walls,
Fingers hover on the dial -
Warmth remains a dream.
