A Revelation of Love

A Revelation of Love will help readers grow in their understanding of the amazing love God has for them. We all need a deeper revelation of how much we are loved by God because that has the power to move us and help us develop a more meaningful relationship with him. 

The personal beliefs expressed in its poems are based on profound and universal Biblical principles. Many of its poems are testimonies about how applying Christian values to one’s life can bring about emotional healing and freedom. Sharing our testimonies is important because it helps us to be overcomers (Rev 12:11). Its messages are clear and easy to read and will appeal to many people at varying stages of their spiritual journey. They encourage each person to follow the same carefully tracked footprints of Christ’s, so they too can climb onwards and upwards towards true success and lasting happiness.  

A Poet's Heart

Lies of night

If the tip of a sun doesn’t wash your ink away,
Then your eye has sinned throw that lamp away,
This darkness like a sigh is the sight of an eye,
With the rise of a sun comes the news of a night,
That which will give a raging fever to your art,
For years has to burn like a flame in your heart,
Every wood brings change when placed in a pyre,
Happy or sad it’s bewildered by a fire,
Filled with memories are your empty eyes,
Full of life but your spirit has died,
A night always comes with a dagger in one hand,
For those happy boarders of a joyful land,
The fire of love burns in those parts of hell,
Where windows of heaven open to drizzle her smell,
And If god lives in heart or so says the Christian man,
Then when a heart is broken does he feel the pain?

I wrote this poem in fear that should a day come where I have to write a synopsis for this book what will I say? Well, this short poem truly encapsulates my story, words, sentences, and paragraphs don’t do justice to art, so “Let the rise of sun be the proof of sun”. Poetry has burnt within me for years. This book is about that fire, I believe every single person in the world has an interesting story to tell, but not all can tell an interesting story. Then there are those stories that are both interesting and intense, those stories are really worth telling. While a neurotic can choke on his own intensity, an artist makes a story out of the flesh of his madness. There is not a lot of difference between the two, except the latter is somehow penetrable.

A Few Years In The Life of a Protest Poet

'I began writing poetry/ditties shortly after moving down to Cornwall back in 1977. It's amazing how inspirational the lapping of the tidal waves can be. Whilst working on a building, I began writing poems about all the different workers on the toilet walls. These were humorous and inoffensive, and although I'd written about the gaffer, he must have liked them, as he never sacked me. 

'The pandemic caused me to put my thoughts down on paper, ranging from what we've done to this planet and its wildlife, to how the Government has dealt with each situation, good or bad.'

A Collection of Reflective Poems

Every poem tells a story, and the poems in this collection are no exception.
A poem like ‘Jessie and Josh’ is based on the author’s early memories, while he and his friend – both passionate writers – were the inspiration for ‘Two Old Boys’. ‘In My Mind’s Eye’ is a loving message to his wife, and ‘The Old Man’ was written for his children, The poem ‘I Never Noticed’ is based on a friend’s comments during a country walk; ‘Joe’, by contrast, came from conversations overheard while sitting on a park bench in Windermere.
With poems that are by turns powerful, emotional, passionate, personal, funny and thoughtful, this is a book to carry with you for those moments of personal contemplation.

A Bouquet of Fish Bones

The unhappy narcissist is threatened by the loss of beauty. The sophisticate takes reward from the geometry of desires. The eccentric form defective passions. The restless spirit seeks out a series of liberating falls. The daydreamer is charmed by planetary coincidences. The womanizer falls victim to fatal attractions. The loner finds amusement feeding his inflated imagination with scenes of mystery. The awareness of mortality leads them to the expression of passions, and mistakes.

The carousels of all these people’s little panics perpetually rotate, each circle closes for another to open and the tyranny of existence continues to be summed up in the agonizing question: the eternality of the temporary or the temporary eternity?

Against a background of the universe’s vast mirror, to what extent can the instantaneous, the insignificant and the random leave any trace on time’s relentless flow, giving another dimension to eternality?
