After a long career in education and the world of social enterprises, I took up baking and writing poetry.
I have been fortunate enough to have always worked with wonderful people, young and old, and stories of their lives were part of every day. When I write, I try to tell these stories in my poetry.
In this selection I hope I have captured the joy and the pain of love that I was privileged to have heard about.
Our heart can own our life, like a bird trapped in a cage. It can make us love, it can make us suffer. We can't escape. And we can't do without it, regardless of where it takes us. The author of this anthology of poems of love and sorrow has touched on the joys of love found.
