The Story Teller

The Story Teller is my sixth book of poems and follows on from the very successful book 'Reflections'. I try to write about everyday events in a way that I hope people can relate to. Some of the poems I write I attempt to embellish with a touch of humour. Some are perhaps thought provoking, some are pure fantasy and some about what might happen in the future. I am passionate about the environment, animal welfare and man's impact on the natural world and this is reflected in some of the offerings within this book. I also believe that the imagination of a child is fantastic and, therefore, should be encouraged. After all, they are the story tellers of the future. I have therefore, (with the permission of her parents), included a poem sent to me from an eight year old girl. As an ex soldier, I know first hand what humans do to each other and the thoughts that haunt soldiers the world over. I have therefore included some ''military' verses. This book is packed with easy to read poems, all in verse. Can you relate to some of them? More than likely yes is the answer. Those of you that have previously read my work will know what to expect, but I might surprise you. Those who haven't, I hope you will be pleasantly surprised. I hope you, the reader, can enjoy the contents of this latest offering and, should you decide to purchase a copy, perhaps I could prevail on you to do me a small favour. Could you please post a review? Good, bad or indifferent, they all help, not only me as a writer, but also others who may be considering its purchase. Thank you for your time in reading this.
