Finding My Way

I want to write a book of experiences and dreams,I don't just want to leave sheets of paper that will never be seen.I would like the book to be like a mind alive on a shelf,From which my voice could go out and, hopefully, help others to find themselves.Once I was lost, now I am free - this is the overriding theme of this collection of poetry.

I qualified in London in 1964 and worked within the profession until retiring in 2003. I started writing after moving to Devon in 2006 as a way of laying to rest ghosts from my past.
