I wrote these poems to express my feelings. However, they soon became an emotional journey of enlightenment that helped me discover myself and how I saw life. Through my poetry I wanted to show how we can help others and also appreciate those who help us and those whose love we share.My biggest inspiration was the love of my family and God and a desire to show that by acts of kindness and love we can help to improve other people’s lives by following God’s simple way of living, something I only recently discovered and which transformed the way I see life.Love is………Love is when you shareOne heartOne soulOne mindIt is a promise of a loving kindThe kind that lets them all run freeTo find their dreams and libertyAnd while pursuing all of thisA seal is made with a kiss

Secrets, Lies and Little Joys
Poetry is far more than it seems. Writing verse can provide a creative shorthand for working through dark thoughts, making sense of your emotions and behaviours, as well as those of others. Poetry offers a way to navigate the tangled maze of challenges, strife, and joys that constitute our inner worlds. It can also magnify life’s wonders, awe, and delight. These varied experiences – regret, mistakes, learning, stumbling, and persevering with bravery – all comprise a life fully lived. Writing poetry helps minimize the bad times and spotlight the good. Revisiting these poems allows for deeper reflection, enriching your life further. Secrets, Lies and Little Joys contains a sampling of my own poems and experiences, along with contextual commentary. In some cases, I provide explanation of the impetus behind the verse. It is my hope these poems find a shared recognition, a communal understanding that you are not alone, mad, or bad in your travels through life.
