Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my web site. If you’ve been here before you’ll see that I’ve given it a bit of a spring-clean. I’ve brushed off the dust and cobwebs and added more poems, and also new photos to better reflect my advancing years. I trust it is now worthy to display my new anthology of poems: ‘There’s a Dragon in my Plum Tree’. My thanks to Alan Rowe for the wonderful cover and inside sketches.

Do take a look. And do let me know what you think.

Poem of the week

Isambard Kingdom Brunel

Do they call you ‘Shortie!’and make life hell?
Then learn from Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
Railways, bridges, tunnels, ships, he built them all,
And he was only 5 feet tall …

…but he wore a very large hat.
